Job Summary:
We’re seeking an experienced and innovative freelance architect to join our expanding team, with the potential to lead our design division as our client base grows. This unique role blends autonomy with leadership, offering you full control over your own client base while contributing to our newly launched architectural design service.
Our construction business, primarily operating in the commercial and public sectors, is now launching a design service with an initial focus on residential projects, with plans to expand into commercial work—including office spaces, portal frame buildings, and refurbishments. This position provides the chance to work independently while using our industry-standard resources.
Why This Role is Ideal for You:
* Autonomy with Growth Potential: While we actively market our design services, we invite you to bring your own client base and support yourself through independent projects. We ask only that your work carries our branding in exchange for using our software and office facilities. As our marketing efforts generate new clients, these projects will be passed on to you, with agreed compensation for any additional work undertaken on our behalf.
* Resources & Support: You’ll have access to industry-standard software licences (including AutoCAD, Revit, Sketchup/Formit, Grasshopper, and Adobe Creative Suite), as well as office space and a collaborative environment to support your work.
* Respect for Your Expertise and Independence: We respect your expertise and independence, and we’re here to provide support, resources, and an exciting path to leadership within our team as we grow together.
* Career Advancement: As our architectural design service becomes established, you’ll have the opportunity to lead our design division. Once work stabilises, our goal is to offer a formal Head of Department role.
Responsibilities:
* Lead the design and development of architectural projects, from residential to commercial, as we expand.
* Collaborate with clients to understand their vision and create actionable, planning-ready designs.
* Use industry-standard software to produce detailed models, presentations, and planning documents.
* Manage project terms, timelines, and budgets, ensuring quality control throughout each phase.
* Conduct site visits as needed, addressing issues and ensuring project success.
Qualifications:
* A recognised degree in Architecture or a related field.
* Extensive experience in architectural design, project management, and team leadership.
* Proficiency in Autodesk products (AutoCAD, Revit), Adobe Creative Suite, and Sketchup/Formit.
* Strong negotiation and client management skills.
* Excellent communication abilities, with a talent for presenting ideas clearly and persuasively.
* A portfolio showcasing creative and technically proficient work.
* Self-motivated, collaborative, and passionate about architecture and innovation.
About the Opportunity:
This role offers an exciting pathway for an architect with an entrepreneurial mindset, blending the freedom of freelance work with the growth potential of a leadership role within our business. If you’re ready to take on new challenges, establish yourself in a growing team, and make a significant impact, we’d love to hear from you.
