Clear Architects is an RIBA Chartered award-winning architecture practice based in the East London/Essex Borders. We work on carefully considered sensitively crafted homes in unique and challenging locations, such as the Green Belt, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and National Parks. Committed to sustainability, we have successfully designed innovative homes achieving Operational Net Zero and Net Zero standards. Combining exceptional planning expertise with intuitive thoughtful design and a strong focus on how buildings are actually delivered, we are consistently creating extraordinary projects tailored to their individual settings.
This role would suit someone who is thoughtful, engaged and keen to be involved in the full journey of a project — from early research, planning and concept development through to technical design, coordination and delivery. You will be supporting the team across high-quality residential projects, helping to develop design proposals, prepare drawings and presentations, coordinate information, and contribute to the detail and care needed to make good design work in the real world. We are particularly focused on designs that can be delivered. Our designs are tested, refined, and ultimately realised.
The kind of people who tend to thrive here:
- Take pride in your work and care about the outcome;
- Have strong attention to detail — not just in drawings, but in thinking;
- Are curious, proactive, and willing to properly engage with a problem;
- Can think holistically, understanding how individual decisions affect the wider project;
- Are collaborative, considered, and easy to work with;
- Are keen to learn, while also taking responsibility for their work.
We are a team that cares — about our projects, about each other, and about doing things properly. That means listening and learning, taking the time to understand a problem fully, being thoughtful in how we communicate and collaborate, and maintaining a level of rigour that ensures our projects are delivered to a high standard. It also means being part of a studio where people tend to stay, develop, and grow over time.
Benefits:
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Regular CPD’s
- Team socials throughout the year
- Support and mentoring
- Direct contact and support from senior leadership team
- Core Hours working pattern (flexibility on start and end of daytime)
