London, United Kingdom Grõ Careers Full time

Grõ Careers is proud to be partnering with one of London’s most exciting, fast-growing design studios… a highly creative practice we have supported in scaling from 15 to 35 architects in just 18 months, now operating from a brand-new Central London studio as they embark on their next phase of ambitious growth through 2026.
As their dedicated talent partner, all opportunities within this studio come directly through us… you won’t see these roles advertised elsewhere in the market

This is a rare chance to step into a studio that is already being celebrated worldwide for its visionary front-end design. Operating mainly across RIBA 0 to 3, with occasional progression into Stage 4, you will contribute to inventive, highly creative projects on an international stage, including but not limited to...

High-end hospitality & destination projects
Cultural & civic architecture
The studio is known for its strong design culture, and the team includes designers who have trained and worked at world-class studios. This is a place for architects who want to design properly…. This is a hands-on design role where you will be provided with real valuable exposure from day one.

Concept design through to technical delivery (RIBA 1 to 4)
High level Rhino & Revit-driven design development
Direct involvement in client workshops and design reviews
Working on live international projects across multiple time zones

Designers here are deeply embedded in projects and play an active role in shaping architecture from the earliest stages.

Very strong Rhino + Revit skills (essential)
Architects who use digital tools to enhance creativity - not drive it

This is a studio that values design instinct, spatial intelligence and architectural judgement first, supported by digital skill.

Following consistent feedback from our client throughout the hiring process, it’s clear they place real value on designers with interests that extend beyond architecture… whether that’s art, sculpture, music, sport, photography or making. 5 days office-based in a brand new Central London studio
~ Early finish on Fridays (circa 3pm) – start your weekend early
~ Highly competitive salaries: Candidates typically see 10 to 15% increases when moving from top-tier design studios
~ Strong career progression as the London studio continues to scale rapidly
~ A genuinely creative, energetic and supportive studio culture


Wants to be deeply involved in real design, not siloed production
Values both creative ambition and healthy working culture

We are reviewing candidate profiles with the Directors throughout December and will begin arranging in-person interviews from w/c 12th January.
