Permanent Roles
We help employers hire qualified architects who can contribute across concept design, planning submissions, detailed technical packages and ongoing coordination with consultants and contractors.
All permanent candidates we supply are assessed for professional background, sector experience and ability to operate within structured design teams.
Employers + Candidates
Temporary Roles
Temporary architects are often required to manage workload peaks, planning deadlines or short-term resourcing gaps. We supply qualified architects who can integrate quickly, follow established design standards and support delivery without disrupting existing workflows.
This recruitment approach allows practices and project teams to remain responsive while maintaining design quality and output.
Employers + Candidates
Project-Based Roles
Some projects require architectural input for defined phases such as feasibility studies, planning support, technical detailing or delivery-stage coordination. We support contract and project-based architect recruitment by supplying professionals aligned to your project scope, design stage and programme duration.
Get targeted expertise when you need it without long-term commitment beyond the needs of the project.

Business Manager
"We started using Blackpoint Recruitment during the pandemic and found them to be very helpful and professional. At a time when other companies were not even responding to our calls due to demand, Blackpoint kept us in the loop of the current recruitment market and was able to supply good quality staff. My main reasons to continually work with Blackpoint was not just to find staff to put in positions but to work with us and understand our business so the staff put forward were right for the job. Blackpoint is currently our main supplier for staff on a temp to perm for the above reason. We have a fantastic working relationship between us and very happy to continually work with them. Would recommend it to any business looking for staff on either a temp or temp to perm basis."

"It is with much enthusiasm that i write to recommend the services of Black Point Recruitment. I have had a close working relationship with the company for four years with regards to recruiting several positions within Wren Kitchens. The team have been able to successful recruit temp to perm positions such as HGV Cat C, Cat C1 and Drivers Mates over these 4 years and continue to do so. They have sent us great office-based candidates for two of our Southern based depots which remain with us now. Black Point Recruitment have been able to supply us with last minute van drivers within hours of request, with all teams fulfilling the role to a high standard and representing our company well. I highly recommend the services of Black Point Recruitment."

Mark Martin
Candidate
"I haven't had much success with agencies in the past. Mainly false promises & sheer nonsense has been the only thing my timesheets have seen. I sent my CV off to them & they responded the same afternoon by phone & had an interview date set up for me by the end of the same day. I strongly recommend them!
Lee Conibear
