Associate Architect in Cambridge

Job Description

Associate Architect

Cambridge (office based) | £55,000+

A major new science scheme has just landed at a well-established Cambridge studio, and they need an Associate to help run it.

You would be on the project from RIBA Stage 1 through to completion. On a build of this scale, this is rare, and it is a real chance to shape something significant.

Why this Associate Architect role

  • Run a large, technically demanding science project from the early stages, not pick it up halfway through.
  • Step straight into a senior seat. Two directors lead the team and there is currently no senior associate above the role, so you would be a key figure from day one with the directors close by.
  • A clear route up: director level next, with more potential for ambitious people further down the line.
  • A specialist team inside a respected multidisciplinary studio that works across science, healthcare, education and living sectors.
  • £55,000 and up, depending on experience. Room to move for the right person.

Associate Architect

  • Manage and run live projects, owning delivery day to day.
  • Drive the lab scheme through the technical stages, Stage 4 especially, to a high standard.
  • Coordinate design, programme and detail across the team.
  • Work directly with the two directors heading up the team.

Your experience as an Associate Architect

  • UK project experience and a solid track record of running and managing projects.
  • An architect or architectural technologist background. Both work here if you have project running experience.
  • Lab or science-sector experience is a big bonus.
  • Revit is . If you are strong elsewhere and not quite there on Revit, they will train you up.

Message me the ‘CAMBRIDGE ASSOCIATE’ and I will send the full brief: salary detail, benefits, and the finer points on progression.
