This exceptionally busy award-winning design studio based in N1 is currently searching for a qualified Architect (or part-qualified) to join their 10 or strong office to undertake a dual design and business development role. The studio is split into both design and technical teams where their workload is primarily within the private residential sector but they also work on a small selection of workplace oriented schemes.
They have highlighted the fact that they have an urgent need for an architecturally trained individual to join their talented team to work as both an Architect and also a Business Developer as they feel this would be a perfect addition to the office. There are serious growth plans afoot and feel this would be an exciting opportunity for an aspiring individual to play a major part in the development of this business.
The office has won numerous awards for their projects and have found themselves in a number of publications so they are already well known within the London architecture scene. This would be the perfect opportunity for any frustrated individual who would love to be more involved with the business development side of an aspiring architectural business!
