A unique opportunity has arisen for a Senior Architect or Architectural Technologist to join a national organisation focusing on Historic buildings and their adaptations in line with Climate change and other environmental factors.

What are we looking for:

  • Degree Qualified and Chartered with a relevant body (ARB / RIBA / CIAT).
  • Experience and passion for working on adaptations of historic buildings.
  • Excellent knowledge and experience of UK policy and legislation relating to achieving net zero and the decarbonisation of buildings.
  • Ability to engage with senior figureheads including shareholders, stakeholders and others.
  • Experience in a management role, with proven leadership skills demonstrated.
  • Someone skilled in the coordination and management of external consultants.

You will be offered a salary as per the details listed, alongside a generous and rewarding benefits package including the following:

  • 28 days holiday + bank holidays (increasing further with years service).
  • Enhanced maternity/paternity pay.
  • Flexible / hybrid working arrangements.
