What’s in it for me?
If you are a technically focused Architect who enjoys getting into the detail and wants that to be recognised as a key strength, this role offers something a bit different. You will step into a senior or associate level position within a respected AJ100 practice where technical delivery is central to how projects are shaped and realised. It is a strong move for someone who feels they have plateaued and is looking for clearer progression and more influence. The salary sits between £55,000 and £65,000, with flexibility for the right person, alongside hybrid working and a genuinely flexible culture built around trust rather than presenteeism. You will be part of a studio where people are approachable, collaborative and supportive, with a real emphasis on long term development rather than short term pressure.
What will I be doing?
You will take a leading role on the technical delivery of commercial and mixed use projects across London, bringing a high level of rigour to detailing, coordination and buildability. This includes working across façade design, roof build ups, technical packages and ensuring projects are resolved clearly through later stages. You will be confident producing NBS specifications and coordinating closely with MEP and structural engineers to deliver well considered, buildable solutions. The role suits someone who enjoys being hands on but also stepping back to guide projects and teams when needed. You will move across multiple projects, supporting key stages while also running your own work, bringing a well rounded understanding of both new build and existing buildings.
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.
