Conrad Consulting are proud to be working in partnership with a highly respected, RIBA Chartered architectural practice, with studios in both York and London, to recruit a talented Senior Architect to join their growing team.
This medium-sized practice has established an outstanding reputation for delivering distinctive, high-quality projects across the high-end bespoke residential and boutique hospitality sectors. Their London portfolio includes "Super Prime" residential developments in prestigious locations such as Mayfair and Chelsea, while their hospitality work focuses on creating immersive, experience-led environments that combine exceptional design with technical excellence.
As the practice continues to expand, they are seeking an experienced Senior Architect to play a key role in leading projects, mentoring team members, and ensuring the successful delivery of complex, design-led schemes from inception through to completion.
The Role
This is an exciting opportunity for a well-rounded Senior Architect with strong technical, delivery and leadership capabilities. You will take responsibility for managing projects through all RIBA work stages, overseeing design development, technical coordination, consultant management and project delivery.
Working closely with Directors, clients and wider project teams, you will lead projects from early concept stages through planning, technical design and construction, ensuring design intent is maintained whilst delivering commercially successful outcomes.
You will also play an important role within the studio, supporting and mentoring junior team members, contributing to project resourcing and helping to maintain the high standards for which the practice is renowned.
Who They're Looking For
The ideal candidate will be an accomplished Architect with significant experience delivering complex projects within the UK. Whilst an appreciation for high-quality design is important, this role requires a strong technical grounding, excellent project management skills and the ability to confidently lead multidisciplinary teams.
You will be comfortable managing client relationships, coordinating consultants and contractors, and resolving technical challenges throughout the project lifecycle.
The practice is seeking an ambitious and proactive individual who enjoys taking ownership of projects, thrives in a collaborative environment and is passionate about delivering exceptional architecture.
