Hobden Butler is looking for a Part 2 architectural assistant or Part 3 architect to join its team in London.

We are looking for an experienced Part 2 architectural assistant with at least three years’ post-qualification experience – or a recently qualified Part 3 architect – on a 12-month contract in our Finsbury Circus studio. The role may be extended – depending on workload growth.

You will work across RIBA Stages one to four. That means feasibility proposals – concept documents – existing and proposed planning drawings – design and access statements – Stage three planning packages – and Stage four technical drawings and potentially in-house CGIs. There is background research – and you will help gather consultant quotes. You will also share general office administration – as everyone in a studio this size does.

What you need:

• RIBA Part 2 with a minimum of three years’ post-qualification experience – or recently qualified Part 3 working within a UK-based architectural studio
• AutoCAD and SketchUp – worked to a practice’s drawing standards
• Adobe InDesign and Photoshop
• experience across RIBA Stages one to four
• direct experience of the English planning system – including drawings submitted to a local planning authority
• written and spoken English to the standard the job requires: you will be writing design and access statements and corresponding with planning officers and clients
• the right to work in the UK without visa sponsorship
• able to work from our Finsbury Circus office three days a week with two from home

Useful – not essential:

• Twinmotion to a standard where you can produce finished visuals without supervision. Is an advantage
• using AI tools in your work. Tell us how you use them

The offer:

• from £34,000 for a Part 2 – or from £36,000 for a recently qualified Part 3 – depending on experience
• a 12-month contract – with potential to extend
• 09:00 to 17:30 – Monday to Friday with hybrid working
• starting late October. If you are available sooner – say so – we can be flexible for the right person
