Konker is recruiting for a Part 1 Architectural Assistant to join a lively architectural practice based in York's City Centre!

This RIBA Chartered Architectural practice is continuously growing and now requires an additional Part 1 Architectural Assistant to support the team.

Please note, this practice is looking to interview in the next couple of weeks and ideally for someone to start in mid-late October or November.

They have now grown to 20 staff and are based in their brand-new office that overlooks some historic landmarks in York.

At the heart of the business are two partners who have a wealth of experience in the commercial, residential, and care sectors. Both partners have won prestigious architectural awards in their careers.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
