Specializing in luxury residential, high-end hospitality, and BIM consulting, our projects are a blend of technical excellence and Italian design artistry. As an accredited ARB practice and RIBA member, we are committed to delivering exceptional architectural solutions.
Role Description
This is a full-time, office-based role for a Part I Architectural Assistant, located at the practice’s Victoria office in London. The successful candidate will be responsible for preparing architectural and technical drawings, supporting project design development, and contributing to presentations and project documentation. Working under the guidance of the Office Director, the candidate will collaborate closely with the design team to ensure that projects meet both aesthetic and technical standards in accordance with the practice’s requirements, while adhering to project deadlines and delivery programmes.

- Over time, the candidate should grow into a dependable and valued member of the team, capable of taking on increasing responsibility and progressing within the practice.
- Practical knowledge of Revit would be advantageous, as the practice operates exclusively using Revit. However, attitude, commitment, and a willingness to learn are considered more important, as initial Revit training will be provided by the Office Director and the right candidate will be expected to quickly master the key tools and workflows.
- A genuine passion for architecture and a strong sense of curiosity are considered essential, as the candidate will be expected to demonstrate a strong personal commitment to continuously improving their technical and software skills through self-directed learning.
- Excellent attention to instructions and the ability to follow design direction precisely are essential.

The selected projects and drawings should demonstrate specific technical and artistic skills and should ideally represent work produced solely by the candidate. Where projects have been completed as part of a team, the candidate should be prepared to clearly explain their individual contribution to the work presented.
Interview process
