Job description

MADE Careers is working with a growing London architecture practice looking to appoint an experienced Project Architect to join its residential team.

The practice has a strong portfolio of residential and mixed-use work across the UK, with a growing pipeline of technically complex housing projects.

This is a particularly good opportunity for an Architect who wants more responsibility and visibility within a smaller team. You’ll work closely with the Directors, take ownership of projects and have clear opportunities to progress as the studio continues to grow.

The Role

You’ll take a key role in the coordination and technical delivery of residential projects, working across the later RIBA stages alongside clients, consultants and the wider project team.

The practice works extensively in Revit, so we’re looking for someone who is genuinely confident using the software for technical delivery and coordination on live projects.

Responsibilities

• Lead residential projects and packages through the technical and delivery stages
• Produce and coordinate detailed technical information in Revit
• Coordinate structural, MEP and wider consultant information
• Manage project information, drawing packages and key deadlines
• Work closely with clients, consultants and contractors
• Support and coordinate junior members of the project team
• Maintain design quality throughout technical delivery
• Ensure projects respond to UK Building Regulations and relevant standards
• Work closely with the Directors across project delivery and wider studio development

Requirements

• ARB registered
• Strong UK residential experience
• Around 3+ years’ post Part III experience
• Proven experience delivering residential projects through RIBA Stages 3 - 5
• Strong Revit skills with substantial live project experience
• Confident producing and coordinating detailed technical packages
• Strong knowledge of UK Building Regulations and residential detailing
• Experience coordinating structural, MEP and wider consultant information
• Confident running projects and taking ownership of deadlines and deliverables
• Experience working directly with clients, consultants and contractors
• High rise residential, larger housing schemes or HRB / Building Safety Act experience would be particularly valuable
• Strong communication, organisation and attention to detail
• Competitive salary + benefits
• Clear opportunities for career development and progression
• Regular studio events and socials
• Supportive, close knit working environment

Why This Role

This is a smaller but growing team where you’ll have genuine project responsibility and direct access to the senior leadership.

For someone who wants to stay hands on with technically interesting residential work while taking on more ownership, there’s plenty of opportunity to develop your position as the team grows.
