Job description

We are looking for an Architectural Technician to join us at our East Midlands Regional Office based in Hinckley, Leicestershire.

… But first, why join us?

We built our first house in 1969. Every possible detail was taken into consideration back then to create a beautiful home. The same is still true today.

We understand that buying a new home is an important decision and that everything, from the location to the build quality, has to stand the test of time for our customers.

As a family-run housebuilder, our team of highly skilled craftspeople ensure care and attention goes into every one of our homes.

We give sympathetic consideration to the areas we build in to design welcoming settings with a variety of home types and space, making every effort to preserve natural features and the conservation of wildlife.

Our strong commitment to create homes that our customers are proud to own - and that we would love ourselves or family and friends to live in - is what has always driven us. It’s why we’re proud to be a five-star housebuilder and it’s why we’re dedicated to creating better life experiences. One home at a time.

What Benefits You Can Expect:

• Discount of Microsoft Office products
• Hybrid working (depending on role)

• Employee discount on our Homes and some building materials
• Employee discount at Triumph Motorcycles Ltd.

What Will Your Day Look Like?

As an Architectural Technician, you will be involved in the preparation and submission of major planning applications in line with the Region’s budget. You will have the pleasure of seeing these developments come to life and ultimately become people’s homes. We’ll support you with great benefits, training and development opportunities so join us and become part of something more satisfying from day one.

You will also be:

• Producing relevant plans and documents in support of planning submissions.
• Managing projects on site.
• Handling queries when they arise.
• Liaising with planners on planning related matters as and when required.

What You'll Need To Succeed:

• Previous experience in a Design and Technical Department in a residential background or new build house-builder.
• Minimum HNC in construction or related subject.
• Computer / IT literate with capability to use Excel, Word and database packages.
• Ability to use AutoCAD.
• 5 GCSEs (or equivalent) grade 4 or above including maths and English.
