Alongside their residential portfolio, they have successfully delivered projects within the Commercial sector, including office spaces, retail developments and community facilities.
As Associate Architect, you will be responsible for overseeing the successful delivery of projects from inception through to completion, managing client relationships, mentoring and developing team members, and ensuring the smooth day-to-day operation of the Birmingham office.

Work on a varied portfolio of residential and commercial projects across the UK
