Job description

Konker Group is working with a practice that is looking to appoint a Project Architect to join its Leeds studio.

This is an excellent opportunity for a design-focused Architect who enjoys leading projects through the early design stages and seeing ambitious ideas progress towards planning.

You’ll become part of a Leeds office of around 30 people, and the practice has an impressive pipeline of projects around the Leeds area.

You will also play a key role in shaping projects from concept through to planning, with the support of an experienced technical team who take schemes through the later stages of delivery.

This is also a business that genuinely invests in career progression, with opportunities to progress into Manager or Associate-level positions for those who demonstrate leadership and work-winning ability.

To be considered, you’ll be an experienced Architect with strong design ability, confidence leading projects through the planning stages and solid Revit experience. You’ll be an enthusiastic communicator who enjoys working with clients and colleagues, with hand sketching skills seen as an added bonus rather than a requirement.

Alongside a competitive salary, you’ll receive:

• The opportunity to work on landmark Leeds developments
• A collaborative multidisciplinary working environment
• Exposure to a diverse range of high-profile projects
• Ongoing professional development and career progression
