Confero Recruitment Group is partnering with a long‑established Ayrshire architectural studio to appoint an Architect who wants more than just another project cycle. We are looking for someone ready to step into a role with genuine long‑term opportunity, influence, and succession potential.
If you’re an Architect currently travelling to Glasgow for work, this is the moment to bring your career closer to home without compromising on project quality, ambition, or professional growth. Someone who wants to contribute at a high level, help shape direction, and grow into a position of real influence.
Their project portfolio is varied, community‑centred and genuinely rewarding. You’ll take a leading role across a diverse range of projects, including:
- Community buildings and civic spaces
- Residential developments and affordable housing
- Sport & leisure facilities
- Industrial and commercial developments
This is hands‑on, end‑to‑end architecture, from concept and early design thinking through to technical delivery and completion. A genuinely local role with the same project variety you’d expect from a Glasgow studio.
A supportive environment that values autonomy, initiative and professional development. High‑level involvement in strategy, design direction and project leadership. A stable, friendly team culture with modern BIM workflows and strong consultant relationships.
Proficiency in BIM related software would help. Solid working knowledge of Planning and Building Warrant processes. Organised, proactive and comfortable managing deadlines across multiple projects.
Architects, Technologists or experienced Part IIs will all be considered, the emphasis is on capability, attitude and long‑term potential.
