About the Role
Our client, a multidisciplinary design consultancy with 15 years of experience delivering major projects in London and extensive international expertise in architecture, project management, and real estate investment advisory, is seeking a Senior Architect to join their team in Limassol. This is a senior-level, independent position for an architect who can contribute clear and tangible value to the practice from the outset. The ideal candidate must be able to work autonomously, exercise strong technical and commercial judgment, and represent the office with confidence in both client-facing and on-site settings. In addition to delivering projects effectively, the role is intended to create strategic impact—enhancing technical quality, refining delivery processes, building solid relationships with contractors and consultants, and contributing positively to the overall performance of the office. The role provides significant long-term career potential for the right professional. However, it is not designed as a training or developmental position. The successful candidate must possess the experience, professional maturity, and authority required to perform at a high standard from day one and to consistently thrive in a fast-paced, delivery-driven environment.
