The practice
This is a long established, multidisciplinary architecture practice with studios across the UK and a strong reputation for design quality. Its portfolio covers new build and existing buildings across a wide range of sectors. The practice is now investing in its hospitality offer and wants a senior level architect to help lead that growth.
The role
This is a senior, outward facing role for an architect who wants to build a hospitality offer, not just deliver one. Working closely with the practice leadership, you will win work, own client relationships and help raise the practice’s profile in the hotel and hospitality market.
What you’ll be doing
- Leading business development in hospitality: building relationships with developers, operators, owners and consultants
- Networking, speaking and representing the practice across the sector
- Leading bids, proposals and portfolio material
- Shaping and leading hospitality projects, including work in existing and historic buildings
- Building and mentoring a hospitality team as the sector grows
What you’ll bring
- Significant hospitality experience in luxury, lifestyle or heritage hotels, food and drink, or mixed use
- A proven record of work winning: client relationships you have built and work you have brought in
- An established network across operators, developers and the hospitality consultant community
- Experience with existing and listed buildings is highly valued
- Credible delivery experience across the RIBA stages
- Confidence representing a practice externally, with the gravitas to reassure clients
This role is for someone who sees themselves as a work winner first.
