We are looking for a project coordinator to join our London studio and work on projects across our practice areas. The role requires candidates with an understanding of the architectural process with experience working across a variety of project stages and procurement types.

The role would suit an experienced project support/coordinator looking for a step up or a senior administrator within architecture who is looking to specialise within project administrative support.

• preparation of project invoice and reimbursable expenses in-line with our global billing protocols
• liaison with our in-house legal team and practice leaders on the review and preparation of contractual and sub consultancy agreements
• support the practice areas with business development such as with fee proposals and qualification package
• support the design teams in successful project delivery
