Senior Architects are highly experienced, ARB-registered professionals who lead complex design projects and play a key role in mentoring junior staff, managing client relationships, and overseeing delivery across RIBA stages. These roles are typically held by architects with 7–10+ years post-Part III experience, strong technical understanding, and the ability to manage multidisciplinary teams and consultants.

Senior Architects often bridge the gap between day-to-day project delivery and broader studio strategy, contributing to bids, resourcing, and client retention. Opportunities span sectors from high-end residential and commercial to cultural, civic, and mixed-use developments. To assess market rates at this seniority level, visit our Architect Salary Guide.
