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.
You must come from an architecture background. This is not a generalist ops role — you'll be designing, managing sites, and leading projects, as well as running the day-to-day of both businesses.
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
