Building Regulations Designer

We are Resi, the UK's number one home extension company, and we’re on a mission to make home improvement joyful. We are currently hiring for a Building Regulations Designer to join our architecture studio in Oval on a full-time permanent basis.

Are you fed up with feeling like you don’t have the right support to take your career to the next level? Or you don’t get to see enough projects, and spend more time doing admin than advising clients? Do you agree that technology can be utilised to help you and your clients to achieve the best results for their home? Do you want to be at the forefront of new construction methods, like SIPs, or ensuring your customer’s homes are the healthiest they can possibly be by specifying Retrofit measures?

Then this could be the role for you.
