Technical Project Architectural Assistant
Role Description
We are looking for a talented and proactive architectural assistant to join our
growing team in London. The ideal candidate will have experience in the design
and delivery of buildings with good technical construction knowledge, and an
interest in working with existing buildings.
You will be working closely with senior team members and external consultants,
taking projects from early concept design through to construction and
completion, with opportunities to develop within the practice and take on
increasing responsibility.
We use Revit for modelling and drawing production; ideally, we are seeking
someone with good working knowledge.
Key Responsibilities
• Assistance to project architects in the design and technical delivery of
façade remediation projects, with input on wider new build schemes as
required: be part of PTA’s role as lead designer in leading and
managing the design team.
• Assisting the chairing and minuting meetings and workshops
• Application of good knowledge of UK Building Regulations, ensuring
compliance throughout the project lifecycle.
• Assistance to our role as Building Regulations Principal Designer.
• Engagement with clients, contractors and stakeholders effectively and
professionally.
Skills & Experience:
• Minimum three years of relevant experience – this might not be façade
remediation but working with existing buildings and directly with
contractors
• Experience in the technical design and delivery of UK construction
projects
• Good knowledge of UK Building Regulations and CDM duties.
• Good technical detailing ability
• Proficient in CAD, ideally also BIM (Revit)
• Confident communicator, capable of liaising with clients, consultants
and contractors.
• Highly organised, self-motivated, and comfortable managing multiple
projects.
• Able to work independently and manage projects and the team.
Salary
• We can offer a competitive salary, which will be commensurate on
experience of the candidate.
Flexible and remote working
• PTA standard working hours are 9.30am until 6pm, Monday to Friday.
However, we have a ‘core hours’ policy that enables flexibility around
this. We work efficiently and try to avoid overtime.
• Our experience is that our work is collaborative and team based, and
best carried out together, although remote working is offered on a case-
by-case basis.
• We would expect a probationary period (normally of 3 months) to be
based solely within our studio.
Interview procedure
• We have a two-stage interview process; commonly the first with project
or senior staff, and the second with directors.
• We may ask a candidate to carry out a short project related task or
Revit test.
Why Join Us?
• An opportunity to work on meaningful, safety-critical projects that
improve building performance.
• A friendly, supportive and collaborative studio culture.
• Ongoing CPD and professional development.
• Flexible hours with remote working options.
• A chance to grow with a studio that values design quality, technical
excellence, and social responsibility.
