Job description

Cartwright Pickard Architects is hiring architects to join its team in London.

We’re seeking exceptional architects with a minimum of two years’ post qualification experience to join our team in London.

At Cartwright Pickard, you’ll join an employee-owned practice where everyone has a stake in what we create. Our studios works across a diverse range of sectors and scales – from large-scale commercial and residential projects to heritage and urban design – and you’ll have the opportunity to work across the full project lifecycle, from early design thinking through to technical delivery.

The role

You’ll be a confident designer and technically proficient – someone who can hold both the big picture and the fine detail. You’ll contribute to a collaborative studio culture where ideas are shared openly and good work is recognised and celebrated.

Day to day, you’ll be working closely with project teams to deliver high-quality design and technical output. Strong Revit skills are essential – our current projects move quickly and we need someone who can hit the ground running.

Experience in any of the following would be an advantage: listed or heritage assets, hotel + leisure developments, or large-scale commercial or residential projects in the UK.

What we’re looking for:

• ARB-registered architect with a minimum of two years’ post-qualification experience
• excellent design sensibility and technical knowledge, including a good understanding of UK building regulations and standards
• strong Revit skills, with the ability to work confidently across both design and technical stages
• a clear communicator – visually, verbally, and in writing
• a collaborative team player who takes ownership

Working at Cartwright Pickard

We believe good architecture comes from empowered people. Our studios in London, Leeds, Manchester and Cambridgeare open, fair and friendly – places where a diverse team of talented people can do their best work.

We’re employee-owned, which means everyone shares in the success of the practice. We invest seriously in the development of our people, and we’re looking for someone who is ambitious to grow with us.

We’re guided by four values:

• consider every angle
• put insight into action
• make relationships matter
• build a legacy

Our mission is to meet the challenges that matter to people and planet, with architecture that looks beautiful, performs brilliantly, and grows old gracefully. You can find out more about life at CP.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

We’re committed to making our practice – and our industry – a more diverse, equal and inclusive place to work. We actively encourage applications from under-represented groups in architecture, including Black, Asian and minority ethnic people, people with disabilities, and people who identify as LGBTQ2IA+. Cartwright Pickard is an equal opportunities employer.

Please note that due to the high number of applications we receive, we can only respond to shortlisted applications.
