at LSI Architects
LSI Architects is hiring a project architect specialising in healthcare spaces to join its team in London.
We have a fantastic career opportunity available for a talented and ambitious one to three years PQE project architect with healthcare experience in our London Office.
About us
LSI Architects is an AJ100, award winning architectural practice with around 70 people, including architects, technologists and support staff, based in London and Norwich.
We seek to create sustainable, innovative, valuable and positive architecture that improves lives, builds communities and enhances society, or as we put it: life touching design.
LSI is recognised as one of the leading healthcare architectural practices operating in the UK. We work across the acute, primary and private sectors with projects ranging from major projects for hospitals to medical centres, dementia care and hospices
Our projects take us to locations throughout the UK, but we have a particular focus on projects in London, Norfolk, Cambridge and the east of England.
You’d join a practice which has long been recognised as one of the best employers in the construction industry. We’ve been a Sunday Times best company to work for since 2015 and are gold accredited by Investors In People. Our clients tell us that they value our professional, collaborative, friendly and creative approach to projects and that our team is great to work with.
We want our people to be happy, healthy, highly trained and highly motivated to deliver the quality design and committed service our clients expect from us. Increasing these four things in equal measure, for every one of our team, allows us to become stronger, achieve our ambitions and generate better design opportunities that challenge, and allow us to explore our potential.
And so, we really look after our people, not just because of our legal obligations, but because we believe that they are our greatest investment. In fact more than 50% of our leadership team is made up of people who have come through the ranks at the Practice. Employee retention and wellbeing statistics suggest we’re doing things right. In the last 12 months, LSI’s employee turnover stood at less than 10%, significantly below the industry average.
