Application Deadline: 31 December 2024

Department: Urban Designer 3+ Years Qualified

Location: London

Description

Our multi-disciplinary urban design and commercial architecture team are looking for talented urban designers with 3+ years' professional experience and a degree in architecture or urban design to assist with our masterplanning, housing and commercial design services. We collaborate with legacy clients who prioritize long-term investment in placemaking and sustainable urban environments.

This exciting opportunity will see candidates assist with the expansion of the existing Winchester-based Urbanism studio to a new London-based Urbanism studio at our offices in Somerset House. In addition to the ability to work independently, candidates will have the opportunity to work closely with directors as well as members of the wider Urbanism team in Winchester.


Key Competencies

As a key member of the urban design team, candidates will have a diverse range of opportunities while developing masterplans for projects of varying sizes. Candidates will take a project from initial concept through the outline and reserved matters planning application stages. They will work with existing housing types as well as develop bespoke homes and mixed-use buildings. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to produce strategic documents such as vision statements and design codes to guide and protect these projects over their development life cycle. Candidates will have the opportunity to work with members of the wider Urbanism team as well as manage small teams and operate independently.

Candidates should have the ability to design by hand and on computer. Experience of operating ArchiCAD is an advantage but not essential as training is provided. No prior experience of traditional or classical architecture is necessary provided individuals have a passion for the traditional and contextual urbanism we promote.
