Senior Architectural Technologist Industrial
Manchester | Permanent | Competitive Salary + Benefits
Our client is an established design practice with a strong track record delivering large-scale industrial, manufacturing, logistics, retail and data centre projects across the UK. Backed by the investment and resources of a global business, they're on a genuine growth trajectory and this is an excellent opportunity to join a Manchester studio at a pivotal stage of that journey, with real scope to shape your own career path.
The Role
They're looking for a Senior Architectural Technologist who's ready to take ownership. You'll run your own projects through the full detailed design process from concept through to construction working on complex, high-value schemes within the industrial and logistics sector.

What You'll Be Doing
- Leading detailed design on large-scale industrial, manufacturing, logistics, retail and data centre schemes
- Managing projects independently through RIBA Stages 3-6, coordinating with clients, consultants and contractors
- Producing and overseeing technically robust design packages, with a particular focus on large steel-frame construction
- Working closely with structural, M&E and other consultants to resolve complex technical detailing
- Mentoring and supporting junior technologists as the team continues to grow
- Contributing to the practice's evolving standards and processes as the business scales
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.
