Sawkings + Norton are a small creative practice with projects ranging from high quality residential schemes for both private individuals and developers to multi-million pound retail, commercial and mixed use developments and office refurbishments.
We have a fun, fast paced, collaborative office, committed to the highest standards and have successfully gained a loyal clientele and regular repeat business. Our wide range of work and collaborative approach provides an excellent environment for anyone to progress their career.
Our workload is growing and we are looking for an Architect to join our team based near Reigate in Surrey. Applicants should have the ambition to lead projects from concept stage though to development and construction.
Candidates should have:
- Excellent design and technical skills.
- A good understanding and experience of construction methods and materials.
- Knowledge of UK Planning Policy and current UK building regulations.
You will be expected to take on an active role cultivating relationships with clients and contractors and therefore we would expect you to demonstrate excellent interpersonal and communication skills. BIM and previous experience in Vectorworks would be an advantage.
We are in a rural office with a diverse mix of clients, which means a drivers licence and access to your own vehicle is essential. You should live within commuting distance.
Immediate availability is desirable.
If you welcome the opportunity to listen and inspire and to take design through to build and you believe this could be the job for you, please send a copy of your CV along with covering letter (stating your availability and salary expectations) enclosing examples of your work and including freehand drawing to email.
