• Building solid understanding of design, technical and legislative requirements.

What we're looking for in this Part 2 Architectural Assistant:

• RIBA Part 2 (or completing it imminently), with the intention of working towards Part 3.
• Curious, organised, and willing to take ownership of your work.
• Confident communicator, comfortable working across teams.
• Genuine interest in building a career in Essex or the wider commutable region.
