Solution Architect jobs in United Kingdom

NZC Consultant / Architect Assistant

Reporting to the Studio NZC Lead and NZC Associate Director - Architecture, this role involves helping develop and deliver NZC advice and low energy / carbon solutions in architectural and multi-disciplinary projects of varying type, size, and complexity.

Project work is primarily within the public sector, including Defence and FCDO, complemented by residential and mixed-use opportunities.

The successful candidate will be involved in developing new clients and opportunities and winning tenders.

Your Role

Working as part of our established NZC team, you will have a mandate to develop NZC design, modelling, and reporting methodologies to complement our existing methods and working practices.

You will be an essential part of our multi-disciplinary team on a variety of new build and refurbishment projects, providing expertise and knowledge to facilitate the delivery of climate-resistant, low-energy buildings. This includes running Net Zero Workshops, and modelling and reporting on Whole Life, Embodied, and Operational Carbon using tools such as LCA One Click Software and PassivHaus PHPP.

You will also support winning new opportunities primarily in the public sector, working with Studio staff as well as other disciplines.

About You

You must be an enthusiastic and motivated ARB-registered Architect with knowledge and experience in the design and assessment of a wide range of buildings and facilities from inception to completion.

A proven track record of delivering low-energy buildings and retrofit projects is desirable, as are related qualifications and certifications (Passivhaus, AECB).

Fundamentally, you must have the ability to work at a high level, employing a range of drawing, modelling, and interpersonal skills to engage, influence, and collaborate with clients, colleagues, and stakeholders on interesting projects.

This role involves more than just architecture; working with our wide range of professional colleagues, you will help solve complex problems our clients need support with.

Required Skills

Excellent numeracy and communication skills are essential. You will research, write, and illustrate print-ready reports, prepare fee and project bids, and participate in interviews.

You must be able to work on your own initiative and as part of an established team.

You should have experience in technical detailing, focusing on thermal bridging and air tightness.

You must be proficient in REVIT.

Experience with One Click LCA and PassivHaus PHPP is desirable but not essential.
