* Supportive and collaborative working environment

Daily duties will include:

* Developing innovative and well-considered design proposals across all project stages
* Producing high-quality drawings, visualisations, and technical documentation
* Working closely with colleagues, consultants, and clients to deliver projects successfully
* Participating in design reviews, meetings, and presentations
* Assisting in the coordination of projects from concept through to completion
* Ensuring designs meet relevant regulations, budgets, and deadlines

The ideal candidate will have:

* ARB registered
* Revit capabilities
* A strong design-led portfolio demonstrating creativity and technical ability
* Confidence in presenting and communicating design ideas clearly
* Experience within an architectural practice environment
* Strong organisational and time-management skills
* A collaborative mindset with the ability to work well within a team
