Base pay range A leading architectural practice with a strong reputation across the UK is seeking a Senior Architect to join their Glasgow studio, focusing on major projects within the science, technology and education sectors. This is a chance to take on a pivotal role in shaping buildings that directly influence innovation, research and learning, while becoming part of a design culture that values collaboration, responsibility and fresh thinking. This practice has carved out a significant presence in the delivery of highly complex and performance-driven buildings. Their Glasgow team plays a central role in this, working on landmark research facilities, advanced laboratories and academic hubs that require both creativity and technical precision. For an architect who thrives on solving challenging problems, coordinating complex teams and bringing clarity to demanding briefs, this environment offers exactly the right balance of scale, responsibility and influence. As a Senior Architect, you will be entrusted with leading design work from early stages through to delivery. The role calls for someone who is equally comfortable engaging with clients and stakeholders as they are coordinating consultants and mentoring colleagues. Projects will often involve intricate laboratory and research facilities, meaning a real opportunity to apply technical knowledge, attention to detail and inventive thinking. With sustainability and net‑zero targets at the front‑line of every commission, you will also play a key part in driving responsible design solutions that set new standards for environmental performance. They take pride in being a practice where design integrity is matched by technical rigour. The Glasgow studio is home to a talented, multidisciplinary team who share ideas openly and support each other to deliver at the highest level. Joining at senior level means you will contribute not only to project delivery but also to shaping the studio’s direction, building relationships with clients and helping to develop the next generation of architects. The culture is professional yet collaborative, offering the resources of a large practice without losing the sense of shared ownership over design outcomes. You will find the systems, processes and support you would expect from a major AJ100 studio, but also the creative energy and openness to push boundaries. Those who succeed here are proactive, commercially astute and able to balance design ambition with real‑world delivery. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced architect who has already proven their ability to deliver complex projects and now wants to step into a role with more autonomy, bigger clients and greater influence. Whether your passion lies in science and technology, higher education or sustainability‑led design, you will have the chance to make a real impact. If you are looking to join a respected design practice where your expertise will be valued, your leadership trusted and your career given room to grow, then this could be the right move. Based in the heart of Glasgow, with projects stretching across the UK, this role offers both challenge and reward in equal measure. Seniority level
