It might come as a surprise, but the architecture jobs market is actually busier than many think.
While there may not be as many new roles being created as in previous peaks, what’s really driving activity is a shortage of available talent. Many architects who relocated back to mainland Europe after Brexit and Covid haven’t returned — leaving practices competing for fewer people.
As a result, firms are fighting harder to secure experienced staff, and those changing roles are often seeing 10–15 % salary increases.
