Assistant Visualiser
We are looking to recruit an Assistant Visualiser within our Strategic Accounts and Services team. You will be predominantly based in our Hitchin office with occasional travel to other national offices. This will be a hybrid role. This is a great opportunity for someone starting out their career in Architectural Visualisation and developing their skills in real-time rendering.
The Assistant Visualiser will provide technical and modelling support for the development of visualisation solutions throughout all project stages, with a focus on pre-construction. This role is vital in helping the project team communicate the design to stakeholders and potential customers.
The ideal candidate should have experience in 3D modelling and the concepts of 3D rendering. You will assist in creating visualisations to support our design team in bidding for projects, with the end goal of using visualisation to transform the way design is communicated in construction.

The role could suit a graduate in 3D games art or a similar degree with creativity and a willingness to learn.
