Job Description
We are seeking an Architectural Technologist, with a minimum of three years’ post-graduate experience and a real command of how buildings go together, to lead the technical design and delivery of commercial projects.
Architectural Technologist (3+ Years’ Experience)
If you get more satisfaction from resolving a difficult technical detail than you do from rendering a building, we would like to hear from you.
Horan Rainsford Architects is an established Blackrock practice, working since 2008 across the hotel, multi-unit residential, office and educational fit-out sectors. We are small enough that you will work directly with the directors and see your details built, and established enough that the projects are substantial.
The Role
You will take responsibility for the technical design and delivery of projects: developing construction details and specifications, coordinating the design team, and representing the practice with contractors on site. We want someone who can run the technical side of a project from tender through to completion.
Job Requirements
What We Are Looking For
At least three years’ post-graduate experience in architectural practice, on commercial or multi-unit residential projects (one-off houses alone will not be sufficient)
A real understanding of how a building goes together: build-ups, interfaces, tolerances, sequencing, weathertightness and fire-stopping
A sound working knowledge of the Building Regulations and Technical Guidance Documents
Experience coordinating consultants and dealing with contractors, including site inspections and responding to RFIs
Proficiency in Revit, which we use as a tool for resolving and communicating a building, not as an end in itself
Clear, concise written and verbal communication
We are interested in what you know and have done, not your title. If you trained as an architect but are not yet on the RIAI Register, we would welcome your application.
What We Offer
Competitive salary, commensurate with experience, with an annual performance bonus
Pension scheme
Paid RIAI membership
Employee Assistance Programme
Bike to Work scheme
Real responsibility on substantial projects, with direct access to the directors
Professional development and mentoring
Varied work across hotel, residential, office and education sectors
A small, collaborative team in Blackrock, close to the DART
How to Apply
Please apply by email only to Brian Rainsford (), with:
Your CV
Two or three of your own construction details, ideally that have been built
A short note, no more than half a page, describing a technical problem you faced on site or with a contractor, and how you resolved it
Renders and 3D views are not required. Applications without the details and note will not be considered. All applications will be treated in strict confidence.
