Levitt Bernstein is seeking an urban designer to join its practice in London.
Our urban design studio based in our London office is looking for an ambitious urban designer.
Levitt Bernstein is an award-winning design-led architectural practice based in London and Manchester. We have over 25 years’ experience of urban design and masterplanning.

With a focus on the place making narrative, the studio has an established track record in research, public realm and public and private sector projects. The studio has won a number of awards including the 2018 BD Masterplanner and Urban Designer of the Year award.
We are currently working on a varied portfolio of projects that include green belt research; developing design guidance for local authorities; development plans to guide an estate renewal scheme; a masterplan for a large greenfield site in Essex and other urban projects involving intense mixes of use.
We are looking for a designer who is versatile and able to think creatively across a broad range of influencing factors. You should have a track record of project-running ideally with some housing experience. You will have a keen interest in regeneration and housing, preferably with experience or a background in architecture or landscape.
