Helping people find jobs in the local area since 2008
We are currently seeking an Architectural Technician to join our group, based at our Donington Park, Leicestershire office.
This is an exciting new opportunity to join our established project team on our ongoing Donington Hall project, where we are undertaking a spectacular, multi-million-pound redevelopment of this 1790 Grade II* listed property to transform it into a superb 49‑bedroom luxury hotel, reinstating the historic association with the Donington Park motor racing circuit. Whether your passion is architecture, heritage buildings, hospitality, or motorsport, you’ll be part of a team helping to contribute to a project that combines all four.
In addition to the hotel, and as part of the wider estate and our aspirations to create an exceptional product, we are also developing the following:
The Motorhouse: adjacent to the hotel, Hastings House is a 4,500 m2 facility, which aims to be the UK’s most prestigious stabling facility for supercars and classic road and racing cars and will include extensive conference facilities.
The Walled Garden: recently‑acquired, the walled garden historically formed part of the hall estate and we are now looking to reestablish this impressive feature, providing produce for the hotel, casual eating and events, and other leisure activities for hotel guests.
Lansdowne Spa: on top of the above, we have plans to redevelop part of the Lansdowne building into a spa and swimming pool, further adding to and enhancing the guest experience.
