London, UK
Architect or Part 2 architectural assistant
at Daykin Marshall Studio
Daykin Marshall Studio is looking for an architect or an experienced Part 2 architectural assistant to join its team in London.
Daykin Marshall Studio is a creative and ambitious small architectural practice working across the UK, specialising in houses, housing and public placemaking. Our studio is based in Dulwich, in a diverse creative hub, so an ideal candidate would enjoy combining a non-central working life with a desire to travel to projects around the country.
We are currently seeking a qualified architect or experienced Part 2 (two years’ plus post-graduation) to lead on a range of private/developer-led house/housing projects and be a key team member on larger placemaking projects.
Collaboration is very important within the studio, so you will be actively involved in the design process on the projects you run, as well as being part of studio crits. We’re also focussed on creative, professional production in the working day, not a late-working culture.
You must therefore be a confident, communicative designer, with job running and client-facing experience, who enjoys working with your hands: drawing and modelling. Together with a strong creative eye, you should be able to demonstrate a sound basis in construction detailing and a good knowledge of UK Building Regulations. The role requires experience of all RIBA Workstages and a clear drive to see projects through to completion. Ideally you will have residential design experience, both private and speculative.
Excellent CAD and graphic skills are important, ideally with knowledge of Vectorworks. You should also have excellent abilities in Photoshop and InDesign.
You must be eligible to work in the UK. Fluency in spoken and written English is very important. Salary is dependant upon experience, with salary expectations to be discussed at interview. Please give your availability in your enquiry.
Daykin Marshall Studio is an equal opportunities employer. We champion diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
Please submit an application-specific covering letter addressed to James Daykin, along with your CV and a concise portfolio. Portfolio file size should be a maximum of 10MB. Applications should be submitted via the apply for job button below.
We are only able to reply to candidates who we invite for interview.
