Project Architect / Senior Project Architect
Three Great Opportunities
Right now we are working with three well‐regarded National practices — all with strong pipelines, genuine cultures, and real career opportunities for architects at the Project Architect or Senior Project Architect level in their Brisbane Studios. Three different firms, three different areas of focus, but all the kind of places where you can do meaningful work, grow your skills, and genuinely enjoy where you spend your day.
The first is a nationally recognised practice with a strong Brisbane presence, working across commercial, education, and health. It's a well‐run, design‐led studio with directors who are genuinely invested in the people around them. The work is varied, the pipeline is solid, and there is real opportunity to work across a full range of project scales end to end.
The second is an architecture and design practice with studios across the country, working across commercial and defence — complex, high‐calibre work that genuinely sharpens you as an architect. Interiors, landscape, and urban design all sit under one roof, so the collaboration is rich and the work has real depth.
The third is a practice synonymous with large‐scale residential and mixed‐use development — towers, masterplanned communities, landmark built outcomes right here in Queensland. A tight‐knit team doing impressive work with a strong local reputation.
