Job Description

Senior Architect - West Midlands £50,000-£52,000

Want a role where you can lead the design work, shape projects early, and still stay close enough to see them through?

A well-established UK architecture practice is hiring a Senior Architect for its West Midlands studio. This is a design-led role with real responsibility from day one. You ll take briefs, develop schemes, present ideas, and help drive projects through the early stages.

This will suit you if you enjoy the front end of architecture but don t want to be boxed into concept work only. You ll work mainly across RIBA Stages 0-3, with the chance to stay involved through delivery too.

Why this role stands out:
  • You ll take on a key design role in the team
  • You ll work across a varied project mix, with residential experience especially useful
  • You ll have the backing of a large national practice, but within a friendly studio environment
  • You ll be trusted to lead, liaise with clients, and run multiple schemes
  • You ll join a team that values fit, collaboration and long-term retention
This is a good move if you want more ownership, more visibility, and more chance to influence projects properly.

What they re looking for:
  • Strong design and concept ability
  • Experience leading projects and managing clients
  • Good presentation skills
  • Revit capability
  • Experience across multiple sectors, ideally including residential
  • Someone who can work independently and bring ideas to the table
Some of the benefits:
  • Competitive salary
  • Bonus scheme
  • Hybrid working after probation
  • Life assurance
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Regular social activities
  • A supportive team and a practice with real scale behind it
If you re looking for a Senior Architect role where you can do more than just support someone else s ideas, this is worth knowing more about.
