Sheffield, Yorkshire and the Humber
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a talented Project Architect to join a design-led and growing architectural practice based in Sheffield. Known for delivering an outstanding and diverse portfolio, the studio works across bespoke high-end residential projects, complex refurbishments, and an expanding commercial sector.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an Architect who is ready to take ownership of projects and play a meaningful role within a close-knit, ambitious team. The role offers a level of autonomy and responsibility that is often hard to find in larger practices, making it ideal for someone on the cusp or ambition into stepping into a Senior Architect position.
The Practice
The studio is a collaborative and forward-thinking environment, specialising in unlocking challenging sites and delivering thoughtful, well-resolved design solutions. Their work spans bespoke private homes, sensitive renovations, and increasingly, commercial and industrial schemes including logistics, manufacturing, and re-cladding projects in line with the Building Safety Act.
They foster a dynamic and vibrant supportive culture, with a strong emphasis on flexibility, agile working, and empowering individuals to make a genuine impact on projects and the wider business.
The Role
As a Project Architect, you will take responsibility for leading projects through key stages, working closely with clients, consultants, and the internal team to deliver high-quality, technically robust schemes.
You will have the opportunity to work across a varied portfolio, from high-end one-off homes to complex commercial and retrofit developments, often involving sensitive sites or existing buildings.

- Lead projects across RIBA Stages 3–6, from developed design through to completion
- Manage day-to-day project delivery, including programme, coordination, and client liaison
- Produce and oversee high-quality technical drawings and Revit models
- Coordinate multidisciplinary teams and external consultants
- Ensure compliance with UK Building Regulations and Building Safety Act requirements
- Contribute to design development, technical problem-solving, and detailing
- Attend site visits, inspections, and project meetings
- Support the continued growth and collaborative culture of the practice
About You
- ARB registered Architect (or experienced Architectural Technologist considered)
- 3–5 years post-qualification experience, ideally within a UK-based practice
- Proven experience leading projects, particularly across RIBA Stages 3–6
- Strong technical knowledge, including Building Regulations and construction detailing
- Proficient in Revit (essential)
- Experience across residential projects (bespoke / high-end / retrofit) and/or commercial schemes
- Confident communicator with the ability to manage clients and consultants
- Proactive, detail-oriented, and comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy
Why Apply?
- Opportunity to take real ownership of projects and influence outcomes
- Work on a high-quality, design-led and technically interesting portfolio
- Clear progression path toward Senior Architect level
- Supportive, close-knit team environment
- Flexible working culture, including home working and agile hours
- Growing practice with a strong pipeline across multiple sectors
