Planning Recruitment – Frequently Asked Questions
Finding the right role or the right hire isn’t just about a job title. It’s about understanding people, culture, and long-term goals. With over 30 years’ combined experience in architecture and interior design recruitment, we provide informed, honest guidance to both candidates and clients.
What do candidates need when applying for a role?
Before we can discuss opportunities in detail, we’ll need a copy of your CV and portfolio (ideally no larger than 8MB). For support positions a CV is required.
How does working with a recruiter work?
We take the time to understand what you’re really looking for from career direction and salary expectations to working patterns and project type. We’ll give you a clear picture of who’s hiring in the market and represent you to those companies. Our service is completely free for candidates, and we support and represent you throughout the entire process.
Why should I work with you?
With over 30 years’ combined experience, we offer deep market knowledge and trusted client relationships, allowing us to introduce opportunities that genuinely align with your career goals.

We recruit from Board level to graduate for Architects, Interior Designers, BIM and digital specialist (including BIM coordinators, BIM Managers and Digital Managers), Technician / Technologists, Project Managers, Landscape Architects, and studio support functions.
