We’re looking for an experienced, talented and motivated architect to join and lead the Rural Design team on the Isle of Skye. This is a unique opportunity for an enthusiastic individual with strong design skills to shape the direction of a practice rooted in contemporary design, sustainability and a connection with landscape.
Rural Design’s innovative and design-led approach has set us apart for nearly twenty years within the field of rural architecture. With a busy workload and exciting projects in the pipeline we’re looking for an experienced, talented and motivated architect to lead the practice on the Isle of Skye.
Spread across the Scottish Highlands and Islands in extraordinary settings our award-winning work includes bespoke homes, social-housing and community projects. This is a unique opportunity for an enthusiastic individual with strong design skills to develop and maintain a vision for a practice rooted in contemporary design, sustainability and a connection with landscape.
We would be delighted to hear from you if you’re an all-rounder with experience as a practice or large team leader. We anticipate you are currently in a similar or adjacent role with proven leadership skills and a portfolio demonstrating your ability overseeing small-to-mid scale projects.
As one of our first points of contact with clients, contractors, consultants and stakeholders you will have great communication skills and be highly organised. You should be passionate about design, and committed to fostering a collaborative environment that encourages growth and excellence. Vectorworks experience is advantageous but not essential.
You will work with the existing Associate Directors and Studio Manager to guide the current team of architects and designers. The post is full-time, based in our purpose-built studio in Portree and we anticipate you will either be relocating or living on or near the Isle of Skye. For those relocating we would consider a hybrid working arrangement initially.
We provide competitive remuneration and an excellent work-life balance. We are a friendly team who enjoy taking advantage of all the Highlands have to offer. As an equal opportunities employer we are committed to building a workplace that reflects the rich diversity of the world around us.
