- Collaborate closely with internal development, design, and construction teams to support efficient project delivery.
- Maintain clear communication with clients, consultants, stakeholders, and wider project teams.
- Support compliance with UK Building Regulations, Building Safety Act requirements, and Gateway processes where applicable.
Requirements & Experience:
- ARB-registered Architect or experienced Architectural Technician / Technologist with strong technical delivery experience.
- Proven experience delivering large-scale residential, heritage, or listed building projects through technical and construction stages.
- Strong understanding of façade detailing, technical coordination, construction sequencing, and package delivery.
- Experience producing and managing detailed technical drawing and tender packages.
- Strong site coordination and construction-stage experience.
- Proficiency in ArchiCAD or Revit is essential.
- Good understanding of UK Building Regulations and technical compliance requirements.
- Knowledge of the Building Safety Act and Gateway processes would be beneficial but is not essential.
- Excellent communication, organisational, and coordination skills.
- Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and work effectively within multidisciplinary project teams.
- Detail-oriented, proactive, and confident taking ownership of technical delivery responsibilities.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a highly regarded residential developer working on prestigious Central London projects, offering the chance to gain both architectural and client-side experience within a collaborative multidisciplinary team.
