Save Job

Studio Seilern Architects has an opportunity for a bid coordinator/writer to support its London office.

About the practice

Studio Seilern Architects is an international architectural practice established in 2006 by Christina Seilern with the intent of producing exceptional architecture that lasts, working across geographies, building sizes and typologies. With offices in London and New York, Studio Seilern’s diverse portfolio spans the United Kingdom, Europe, North Africa and the Middle East.

Studio Seilern Architects undertakes a diversity of projects; it is our conscious decision to work on both on small and large scales as well as simultaneously on new build to restoration works. Irrespective of size or context, each project they undertake informs another.

We believe that architecture does not just rely on innovation and design, but on the ability to deliver a project from conception through to completion. Our expertise lies within commercial, high-end residential, mixed-use, cultural, master planning and educational projects.
