The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in architecture, interior architecture, or a related discipline, together with a willingness to learn and develop within a fast-paced project environment.
Key Responsibilities:

* Assist with the production of technical design documentation, from early-stage schematics and sketches through to construction documentation.
* Help translate conceptual designs into detailed, practical, and buildable solutions while maintaining design intent, cost, compliance, and programme requirements.
* Assist with the preparation and development of technical drawing packages, specifications, schedules, and associated documentation.
* Support coordination between architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, public health, and other disciplines.
* Assist in the development and coordination of Revit models, CAD drawings, PDFs, and other technical information.
* Review reference information, site documentation, and project materials to support design accuracy.
* Assist with quality assurance and quality control processes and help identify potential technical or design risks.
* Work collaboratively with preconstruction, commercial, project management, site teams, consultants, clients, and other stakeholders.
* Assist with maintaining drawing files, document sets, naming conventions, and project information in line with company standards.
* Develop knowledge of relevant regulations, technical standards, Building Regulations, and CDM requirements.
* Assist with statutory applications and compliance-related processes.
* Provide technical information and documentation to support site teams during construction.
* Attend and shadow site visits, internal meetings, and technical coordination reviews to develop practical construction knowledge.
* Assist with the preparation of as-built/as-record drawings and associated documentation.
About You:
* Bachelor's degree in Architecture, Interior Architecture, or a related discipline.
* 1-2 years of experience in a technical design, architectural, interior design, or drafting environment, including relevant internship experience.
* Working knowledge of Revit, BIM coordination tools, AutoCAD, and other relevant design software.
* Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to technical documentation.
* Good verbal and visual communication skills.
* Strong problem-solving abilities and an interest in finding practical technical solutions.
* A genuine willingness to learn technical standards, regulations, construction processes, and industry best practices.
* Ability to follow direction while taking ownership of assigned responsibilities.
* Comfortable working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary project team.
* Able to adapt positively to changing project requirements, feedback, and priorities.
What's in it for you?
* The opportunity to develop your technical design career within an established design and build environment.
* Exposure to projects across multiple stages, from design development through to construction and completion.
* Practical experience working alongside experienced technical, design, project, and site professionals.
