Job description

This is a Senior Architect role on a commercial office build at a large London practice, running on Revit. You will hold a workplace scheme through delivery, so if you want to own a commercial project rather than pick up fragments, read on.

You will join a practice of over 200 designers across four studios, working across workplace, hospitality, residential and mixed-use. This role sits on the commercial side, delivering office buildings. Teams here are director-led and run without rigid sector silos, so you gain breadth alongside your core commercial work.

The studio was founded 80 years ago and carries real digital depth, with an in-house BIM team behind the modelling. If you want a workplace project to run and the technical support to run it well, this fits.

The Practice

You will join a large-scale practice of over 200 designers working across four studios.

The studio delivers across workplace, hospitality, residential and mixed-use sectors.

You will work in director-led teams that run without rigid sector silos.

The Work

• You will run a commercial office building as the Senior Architect.
• You will produce and coordinate delivery in Revit.
• You will make regular site visits, working with clients and contractors on site.
• You will draw on an in-house BIM team of managers, coordinators and model leaders.
• You will deliver work to the practice's sustainability and technical standards.

What You Need

• You are a qualified Architect with senior experience.
• You have experience running commercial or workplace projects.
• You can take a building through to site and hold delivery.
• Experience with Revit is essential for this role.
• Experience across RIBA stages would be preferred.
• An interest in sustainable, low-carbon design would be preferred.

The Offer

• You will work on a hybrid basis, four days in the office and one remote.
• The practice pays your annual ARB and RIBA retention fees.
• You will have access to a nine-year in-house mentoring programme and structured CPD.
• You will work with a supportive and social team, with regular social events and extracurricular activities
