Most Part II adverts ask you to sit quietly behind a project lead. This one does not. This is a Part II Architectural Assistant role on the planning side, assisting a Senior Architect, where you are expected to be confident in design and able to take the lead on work.
You will join a design-led East London studio of around 30 people, working across residential, workplace and education. The practice runs projects from concept through to completion and is known for imaginative, sustainable schemes. This is a studio where you can shape work early, not just draw up someone else's decisions.

- You will take the lead on defined pieces of work where you are ready to.
What You Need
