Job Description
Part 2 Architectural Assistant
A design-led architectural studio based in Newcastle is looking to appoint a motivated Part 2 Architectural Assistant to join its growing team.
The practice works across a varied project portfolio including housing developments, bespoke residential projects, commercial schemes and heritage work.

Key responsibilities:
* Preparing drawings, layouts and presentation material.
* Assisting with planning applications and building regulation packages.
* Supporting residential and mixed-use projects.
* Producing design information and technical details.
* Attending meetings with clients, consultants and local authorities.
* Contributing to internal design discussions.
The position would suit a Part 2 who is keen to develop their technical ability and move toward Part 3 within a supportive practice.
Requirements:
* RIBA Part 2 qualification (UK).
* Good design and presentation skills.
* Working knowledge of UK planning and building regulations.
* Experience using AutoCAD or similar CAD software.
* Good communication and organisation skills.
* Interest in residential architecture.
Desirable:
* Revit experience.
* Photoshop and InDesign skills.
* Some experience working in a UK architectural practice.
* Intention to progress toward Part 3.
The successful candidate will receive mentoring and broad project exposure within a relaxed studio environment. The role would particularly suit someone who wants to be involved across all stages of projects and build a well-rounded portfolio.
