Associate / Associate Director - Primary Care

1 month ago


West Midlands, United Kingdom The Annoying Recruiter Full time
Job Description

Most Architectural professionals have their promotions dangled in front of them for months or even years like a carrot.


You are not a Donkey.


If you worked in this job, you’d be a sector lead for Primary Care from day one. That means you’ll be really important and influential. You’d be a ‘nearly Director’. It’s easy to get promoted here, 30% growth every year come rain or shine sort of guarantees that. But the nature of this specific job also guarantees it.


It’s automatic progression, as long as you’re keeping your clients happy and doing a good job. Which is probably what you’re already doing right now, just without the opportunity to earn.

You’d get a really worthwhile salary, and a proper, four figure bonus, twice a year. There is a bit of WFH on offer, there is flexibility, there is the possibility that this could be a part time job if you’ve got family duties.


You’d be working somewhere that is already in the sector too, so the usual mad run up to a promotion in this sort of job, where you have to literally build a business isn’t necessary either.

You’re not going to come across this sort of job every day. Not for a business where it’s actually financially worth being an Associate Director or Director.


It’s emotionally worth it for you too. You wouldn’t be working somewhere that is hand to mouth on finances or resources for once. Everything is easier, less rushed, less stressful. There’s only good pressure to succeed. Forget being focussed on just surviving, or waiting for projects to land to employ, promote or resource yourself appropriately.


You’d work in a business that takes social value and corporate responsibility very seriously too. That means a low carbon commitment in design, but it also means you could spend hours and hours of paid time on pro bono work that interests you or is important personally.


You could enjoy volunteer days away from work, planting trees in nature, discussing the role of an Architectural practice at schools or helping out at food banks.



More about the Day to Day


  • You’d spend a lot of time meeting with clinicians throughout the UK. They’re Health professionals, so they don’t understand how a building works. With this practice one of your main jobs is for you to be the lead consultant. Almost like the old days before PM’s existed.
  • Everyone, including you if you work here, is still to some extent hands on. So you’d design and model yourself as well as work with your teams to deliver on every project. It might not be everyday but it will be regular enough for you to stay sharp.
  • There is a very strong bid team for public and private health work like this. They’ll do the bulk, but you’re there to advise and support them.
  • You’ll be in charge of delivering projects. Both your own and managing the project managers.


What you’ll need:


  • Experience as a qualified Architect with experience in Primary / Community care.
  • You might be a Senior Architect right now, or an Associate or AD already.
  • Revit experience would really help.
  • Experience mentoring and soft management of small or medium sized teams.
