Project Architect | Hotels & Hospitality | Central London

Up to £55,000 + Paid Professional Subscriptions, Christmas Shutdown, Enhanced Family Benefits, Extensive CPD Programme and more

Few projects test an architect quite like a hotel. You're balancing design quality, technical detail, operator standards and a large consultant team, often on an ambitious programme. If that's the kind of challenge you enjoy, and you've already delivered hotels in the UK, this could be a great next step.

Our client is a highly respected, well-established architectural practice with a strong portfolio of hotel and hospitality projects in the UK and internationally. They are growing their dedicated hospitality team and are looking for a Project Architect to help deliver high-profile schemes.

You'll take ownership of key packages, work closely with clients, operators, consultants and contractors, and play a central role in turning great design into buildings that work for guests and operators alike. Projects run across a range of scales and stages. Strong technical experience and later RIBA stage delivery will be particularly valued.

The Role

As part of an experienced hospitality team, you'll help design and deliver hotel projects from design development through to construction. You'll coordinate consultant teams, develop technical packages and be actively involved in delivery. Whether your strengths lean towards design or technical delivery, you'll be supported by a collaborative team with real opportunities for development and progression.

This role suits a Project Architect who enjoys technically challenging work and wants to build their career in hospitality. You'll have a strong pipeline of hotel projects, an experienced team around you and a practice that invests properly in your development.
