The employer provides a collaborative working environment supported by experienced design and technical teams across the wider practice. Architects benefit from a professional setting where quality, reliability and thoughtful design remain central to project delivery.

Who Is This Role Ideal For?

Architects moving from larger studios may appreciate the increased visibility and influence available within a growing office. The opportunity allows individuals to contribute directly to project delivery while shaping studio culture.

This role suits candidates with a strong delivery background who want deeper exposure to science and laboratory buildings. The mix of technical projects and broader sector work supports both specialist and generalist career development within Architecture.
