• Support project leadership in decision-making, coordination, and client reporting.
• Prepare and review technical drawings, specifications, and design documentation.
• Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure cohesive and efficient project delivery.
• Maintain clear, structured, and well-managed project documentation throughout all stages.

Requirements & Experience:

• ARB-registered Architect with a minimum of five years’ post-Part III (or equivalent) experience.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating both design leadership and project delivery across a range of stages.
• Proficiency in Revit and Adobe InDesign.
• Strong understanding of construction processes, technical detailing, and relevant industry standards, including ISO.
• Proven experience coordinating with consultants, contractors, and wider project teams.
• Excellent organisational, communication, and leadership skills, with a collaborative approach to working.
• Detail-oriented, proactive, and confident in managing responsibility across multiple project stages.
