This is not a normal job.

Nook Build & Formline Studio are looking for a qualified Architect who can also run the business — from design and site supervision through to operations and business development.

The role:

Design and manage architectural projects for Formline Studio

Provide site management and supervision for Nook Build's live projects

Visit sites weekly to check progress and quality

Run both businesses day to day — projects, clients, subcontractors, suppliers, timelines

Win new business — follow up leads, attend site visits, present proposals, close contracts

Manage the team — coordinate with our remote team, brief subcontractors, hold everyone accountable

Report to the owner weekly — clean, honest numbers

What you earn:

Base salary £28,000–£32,000 (DOE)

+1–2% of every contract you close

+1–2% of every design project you lead and deliver

Bonuses for on-time delivery, monthly KPIs, revenue targets

Annual performance bonus

Total earning potential £70,000+

Must have:

Qualified architect — Part 1, Part 2, or ARB registered

Proven site management / supervision experience

The right attitude — hungry, driven, takes ownership

Honest, client-facing, London based

Commercial awareness — margins, cash flow, winning work

Nice to have:

Business development or operations experience

Existing subcontractor network in London
