Senior Architect – Newcastle
A leading UK practice is looking for a Senior Architect to play a key role within their Newcastle studio. The organisation delivers large, complex projects across education, healthcare, regeneration, commercial and residential sectors, offering significant scope for high‑level design and technical involvement.
The studio places real value on open design dialogue, shared problem‑solving and cross‑disciplinary collaboration. Senior staff contribute directly to shaping the studio environment, supporting team culture and guiding long‑term development.
The Role
You’ll lead elements of the design process from concept through to detailed delivery, coordinating multi‑disciplinary teams and ensuring technical rigour. You’ll work closely with clients and contractors, take responsibility for specific work packages, and contribute to decisions around quality, programme and technical solutions. You’ll also mentor junior staff and support studio leadership.
What You’ll Bring
* RIBA Part 3 and ARB registration
* Strong understanding of UK Building Regulations and compliance
* Experience leading design stages and developing key technical details
* Comfortable operating in client‑facing and multi‑disciplinary environments
* Ability to support budget awareness and develop financial understanding
* Proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD; Navisworks/BIM federation experience desirable
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
* Real leadership opportunities within a respected and growing studio.
* Exposure to high‑value, multi‑sector, complex projects.
* Close collaboration with engineering, management and technical specialists.
* Strong commitment to professional growth, mentoring and progression.
This role suits someone ready to take ownership, lead substantial stages of project delivery and play an active part in shaping the studio’s future direction.
