Price & Myers is looking for a publicity and communications assistant to join its team in London.
Price & Myers has grown in the 40 years since it started, to a practice of over 180 staff, mainly located in London but with smaller offices in Nottingham and Oxford. We set out with the intention of working with the best architects to produce excellent buildings; the long list of awards that the practice has won demonstrates that we have been quite good at it. In parallel with this, the original partners established a practice with a strong culture – highly skilled and professional, but also caring, supportive, relaxed and sociable. We have tried hard to maintain this special environment. The quality of our work output, and our quality of life while at work, are equally important to us. Our reputation as great people to work with – and to work for – is crucial.
