We are currently representing a well-established, award-winning architectural practice that is seeking a talented Project Architect to join their growing Kettering office. This is an excellent opportunity to become part of an exciting period of growth following the recent expansion of a few other strategic offices.

This role would suit an Architect with around 5+ years' experience within practice who is looking to take ownership of projects whilst remaining hands-on with project delivery. The successful Architect will lead projects across all RIBA Stages, working closely with clients and consultants whilst producing high-quality technical information using Revit.

The practice works across a diverse range of sectors including Education, Commercial, Student Accommodation, Heritage and Cultural projects. Current projects include new schools, student accommodation developments, commercial-led mixed-use schemes and work within the museum sector. Project values are typically £10m+.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative practice that prides itself on developing its staff, offering clear progression opportunities and the chance to work on technically challenging, design-led projects.

Project Architect Job Overview

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.
