We're a passionate group of architects, designers and technicians
all working together to create something bigger.

I qualified as an Architect in 2017 joining BTP the same year, was promoted to Associate in 2019 and became a Director in 2023.

Since joining BTP, I’ve led projects from concept through to completion, ranging from large-scale housing developments to refurbishment and high-rise fire remediation. These include an award-winning 34-home affordable housing scheme in Wythenshawe and successful Gateway 2 applications for Hatton Gardens in Liverpool and The Blake in Southampton. I’ve also built a strong relationship with a major national contractor, delivering high-rise remediation and refurbishment projects across England and Scotland.

As an accredited Building Regulations Principal Designer, I have a particular interest in building safety and compliance. My strengths lie in job running, detailed design and project management, helping projects progress smoothly and meet the required standards.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, travelling where possible to explore different cultures and running recently completing the Great North Run 2025 and London Marathon in 2026.

I joined BTP from my previous practice in March 2020 bringing over 25 years of experience in the conservation and re-use of listed and historic buildings at the highest level. My experience ranges from humble church repairs to large scale regeneration projects. This has fostered a pragmatic, methodical approach which has full regard for the philosophical and intellectual discipline but is tempered with a realistic appreciation of the more prosaic real-world issues of cost and sustainability.

My expertise has been recognised through several award-winning projects, and I was the recipient of the prestigious King of Prussia medal in 2016 for the conservation work completed at St James Church, New Brighton. My current workload involves challenging projects at Foxdenton Hall in Chadderton and for the reordering and extension of the Grade I listed St Peters Church in Congleton.

I also sit on the Diocesan Advisory Committee at Manchester Diocese and work as a peer assessor for the AABC conservation accreditation registers register which has allowed me to influence and promote the consuming need for rigour and quality in the conservation sector.

Outside of work I enjoy family holidays and long walks with our Airedale Terrier, Sascha.

Enjoying the work / life balance of a supporting role, I have chosen to remain an architectural assistant and job runner. Having been at BTP since 2008 I have worked with most of the architects over the years. In doing so I have gained experience, knowledge and skills in each of our main sectors, including residential, ecclesiastical, conservation, remediation, judicial and custodial projects.

Outside of work, my teenage sons keep me busy, I enjoy encouraging their passions whether that be cheering at a football match or listening to them about game design. When I get a moment to myself, you'll find me listening to an audio book, tending the garden.

I joined the BTP team in January 2023 as the second office dog alongside Airedale Terrier Sascha!

My role involves improving staff morale and greeting office visitors very exuberantly!

In my spare time I live with Director Manuel Atkinson and enjoy going on lots of hiking adventures across the UK and Germany.

I joined BTP as an architect in February 2021, bringing eight years’ experience at a large commercial practice in Manchester. I was promoted to associate in x and became a Director in 2023. My background spans masterplanning and large-scale residential and commercial projects across the UK, alongside projects throughout Asia, including a monastic school in India and major masterplans in China.

At BTP, I’ve developed my knowledge and experience in conservation and refurbishment projects across the country, most recently helping convert a listed building in Holyhead, Anglesey, into apartments. I’ve also developed a particular specialism working on high-rise recladding projects across Greater Manchester.

I am a Certified Passivhaus Designer with a focus on refurbishment and sustainability and have a keen interest in how we can live sustainably whilst minimising the impact on the environment.

Outside work, I love cooking, having spent my early years working as a chef in a family restaurant. I’m also a qualified drone pilot and enjoy combining travel and hiking with aerial photography, most recently in the Dolomites and Norwegian fjords. Other interests include running, music and keeping up with the latest technology.

I joined BTP in August 2026, bringing over 10 years’ experience across aviation, high-rise housing, commercial developments and luxury homes.

I began my career in Mexico before completing a master’s degree at the University of Sheffield, graduating with distinction. I have been fortunate to work across a wide range of sectors, from aviation and high-rise residential towers to commercial developments and luxury residential projects.

I’ve always been interested in how things are made and particularly enjoy developing an idea from concept through to construction, combining design thinking with practical detail.

Outside work, I enjoy swimming, running and listening to music, alongside tackling a growing list of DIY projects around the house, probably too many, if I’m honest!

I’m an architect with specialist experience in housing and heritage projects, with a particular focus on fire safety and cladding remediation. I qualified in 2015 and joined BTP in 2017, following roles in Singapore and Sweden working on public buildings, BIM management and accessible design.

I am qualified as a Certified European Passive House Designer, a RIBA accredited Conservation Architect, and became one of the first Architects to be listed on the RIBA Principal Designer Register for Higher Risk Buildings (HRBs).

Outside work, I like to keep fit with running, hiking, weightlifting, skiing and rock climbing. Travel and adventure are a big part of my life, from completing the Inca Trail and climbing Kilimanjaro to running my first (and probably only) marathon on the Great Wall of China.

I joined BTP in September 2024 having graduating from the University of Huddersfield. My previous work with a conservation contractor gave me practical experience on site, including traditional lime mortar repairs at Little Moreton Hall.

Since joining BTP, I’ve worked on projects ranging from new-build housing to a major re-roofing scheme at the Grade II-listed Bootle Town Hall. I’m continuing to build my experience while studying part-time for my master’s degree at the University of Lincoln.

Outside of the office, I enjoy going to the gym, playing golf and padel, as well as listening to vinyls from my ever-growing collection.

I joined BTP Architects straight from University in mid-2023 as an Architectural Technician. Since then, I’ve developed my skills in Revit, project management and technical design, alongside a growing understanding of Building Regulations and industry guidance.

Having been thrust into many different projects, I’ve gained wide sector experience including large-scale retrofit, social housing and accommodation for people experiencing homelessness, refurbishment and luxury new-build homes. This experience has sparked a particular interest in site planning.

Outside work, I enjoy playing padel with colleagues, football and the occasional attempt at golf. I’m also a Liverpool FC supporter and like to unwind playing video games.

I joined BTP in 2008, qualified as an Architect in 2013, and progressed to Director in 2017. Over my career, I’ve built extensive expertise across the full range of design criteria for housing, later living, and care environments, including HQI, DQS, Lifetime Homes, HAPPI, NDSS, and Building Regulations accessibility standards.

Sustainability is a core part of my professional focus. I am an accredited Energy Assessor for both new-build and existing homes (OCDEA / DEA) as well as a certified Home Quality Mark Assessor and PAS2035 Retrofit Designer / Assessor. Within BTP, I lead many of our sustainability initiatives; developing strategies to help clients realise their ambitions, meet zero-carbon targets, and align with the Future Homes Standard.

Since 2013, I have also played a key role in enhancing BTP’s BIM (Building Information Modelling) capability. I have achieved multiple BRE qualifications, including ISO 19650 accreditation, enabling me to manage BIM processes and workflows effectively across our projects.

In 2024, I joined the RIBA Principal Designer Register, gaining Principal Designer status with High‑Risk Building (HRB) expertise for both CDM and Building Regulations following rigorous training and examination. I now act as Building Regulations Principal Designer across a range of new‑build and refurbishment schemes, providing trusted guidance to clients and development teams.

My advanced knowledge of BIM, sustainability, and the Building Safety Act also sees me deliver regular training, CPD sessions, and workshops for Registered Providers and contractors.

I joined BTP in 2015, bringing a portfolio of Judicial and Custodial refurbishment projects to the practice, which I still continue to develop, including several conservation projects. More recently, I have also developed my role as a Principal Designer on both HRB & Non-HRB projects, particularly for custodial and education projects.

Since Graduating from Dundee University in 1996 I have gained considerable experience as an architect through completing a broad range of project types and sizes; from domestic projects for private clients to multi-million pound construction programmes for Government bodies and International commercial organisations throughout the UK. My predominant skills are in job running, detailed design, conservation projects and project management.

Outside of the office I am an enthusiastic hill-walker and climber and enjoy the outdoors, from gentle country strolls, ticking off Wainwrights and Munros, or summitting international peaks. I am also a keen traveller with a collection of passport stamps from Iceland to Antarctica.

I joined BTP in June 2024, qualifying as an architect in April 2026. I previously worked at a large Manchester practice bringing experience in commercial developments, multi-storey car parks and high-rise residential projects.

My background includes designing homes to national space standards and accessibility requirements. At BTP, I enjoy combining technical detail with thoughtful design, with a particular interest in conservation, refurbishment and sustainability.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, travelling, hiking, playing badminton and horse riding.

I joined BTP in March 2020 as part-time office dog. My main duties involve greeting people, sleeping in doorways and looking appealing in return for treats.

Outside of work, I live with Adrian Pearson and carry out all usual doggy activities.

I’m a business development and marketing professional with 25 years’ experience across the legal, healthcare and construction sectors.

I joined BTP in 2014 to establish and lead the practice’s marketing function and became a Director in 2023. Today, I lead business development, marketing communications and client care, overseeing bids, joint ventures and partnerships, and helping ensure our clients have a positive experience working with us. I’m also a board member of the North West branch of Women in Social Housing (WISH).

Outside work, I’m a keen traveller and run a local hiking group. I love taking on new adventures, from running the Great Wall of China Marathon to climbing Kilimanjaro.

I joined the BTP team in 2025 with over 20 years' experience in the production of technical drawings throughout the RIBA work stages.

I previously worked for an AJ100 practice focused on large-scale residential, Extra Care living, and Community Healthcare Hubs. I contributed to the technical delivery of Salford City Council’s first completed Passivhaus scheme, providing low-energy homes for some of the region’s most vulnerable residents. Working on socially driven projects that respond to urgent housing needs in overlooked communities has shaped my approach, balancing technical detailing with lasting, thoughtful design.

Outside of the office I am a dedicated stationery obsessive, culture buff, avid reader and very poor Crown Green bowler.

I am an ARB-registered Architect at BTP Architects, primarily working on new-build residential, social housing and extra-care projects. I hold a BA (Hons) and M.Arch from Liverpool John Moores University and joined BTP in 2022, qualifying as an architect in 2024.

My approach is grounded in clarity, proportion and considered design. I am interested in housing that is composed and enduring, architecture that prioritises long-term value and resident wellbeing over fashion or novelty. For me, good residential design is measured, durable and carefully integrated within its wider community.

I am developing in the role of Project Architect and have particular strength in drawing and technical coordination across all RIBA stages. I enjoy the analytical side of projects, testing layouts, refining detail and working through complex requirements to arrive at clear, buildable solutions that respond to both client and community needs. I have also begun contributing to projects involving Higher Risk Buildings, engaging with the evolving regulatory framework and its implications for residential design.

Outside of practice, I enjoy spending time with my family, travelling and listening to podcasts focused on history, politics and wellbeing. I am also a lifelong supporter of Liverpool F.C.

I joined BTP in January 2020 as Office Manager. I have spent the last 15 years gaining experience working in office administration roles focusing on Human Resources and in more recent years Office Management.

My role at BTP is to oversee the day to day running of the office. I enjoy the variety that this role gives me and that each day is different.

I have always had an interest in Art and Architecture and working at BTP has given me the opportunity to learn about Architecture whilst working which has been a great experience for me.

Outside of work, I am a mum to two children who keep me busy. I enjoy exercising especially Zumba and spending time with my friends and family.

I have recently joined BTP as a Part II Architectural Assistant. I graduated with a Master’s in Architecture from the University of Salford in 2023 and have since gained two years of professional experience in practice.

My experience spans RIBA Stages 2–5, working across a range of sectors including PBSA, residential, cladding remediation, self-storage, and refurbishment projects. I have contributed to Gateway Two submissions and developed a strong understanding of the Building Safety Act framework, particularly in relation to cladding remediation schemes.

I have an interest in heritage conservation and regeneration projects and look forward to expanding my experience in these areas at BTP. I look forward to being a part of the BTP team and intend to begin my Part 3 qualifications this year as I work towards becoming a registered architect.

Outside of architecture, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, painting, hiking, and travelling - exploring different cultures and cuisines.

I have recently joined BTP as a Part II Architectural Assistant, bringing almost three years’ experience delivering a range of projects varying from the Uk’s leading sustainable care homes to high-end residential projects and commercial retrofit schemes. Throughout this time, I have developed an appreciation for people-first accessible design that can be as efficient in delivery as it is in operation.

I am excited to develop my breadth of experience while learning from the talented team at BTP as I work towards my Part 3 qualification in the coming years.

Outside work, travelling has sparked my interest in the sustainable regeneration of post-industrial cities, often taking my partner and me to lesser-known corners of Europe on last-minute Skyscanner flights.

I joined BTP in April 2026, bringing five years of professional experience delivering luxury private homes and large-scale high-rise residential developments across all RIBA stages.

Prior to joining BTP, I contributed to a range of residential projects from concept design through to construction, including planning approval, coordination and supporting Building Safety Regulator submissions.

I enjoy combining creative design with technical problem solving to create thoughtful buildings that respond to their surroundings. At BTP, I’m keen to contribute to sustainable, well-designed housing while developing my experience in refurbishment, retrofit and projects.

Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, painting, rock climbing and spending time with family and friends.

I joined BTP in 2018 as a Part 1 Architectural Assistant and have since completed my master’s degree in architecture. I’m now working towards my Part 3 qualification, with experience across new-build housing, retrofit, retirement living and high-rise remediation.

My projects include a 50+ unit extra care home, Bowland House 17-storey high-rise remediation and 70 unit Booth Street housing scheme in Stoke. I also lead BTP’s CGI and animation studio, creating architectural visualisations that help clients understand and explore their projects.

Outside work, I enjoy travelling, exploring new places, photography, and spending quality time with friends and family.

I joined BTP in January 2026 as a Marketing Assistant/Administrator. Since graduating with an English degree in 2022, I have worked in both administrative and marketing roles.

My role at BTP is to assist the architectural team with day-to-day administrative activities and provide support to the Business Development Director.

Outside of work, I enjoy swimming, hiking and spending time with friends.

With over 25 years of industry experience, I have worked on projects ranging from bespoke residential refurbishments to major commercial new builds. Through DirC Architectural Ltd, I provide independent technical package coordination, advanced BIM and Revit detailing, and building compliance services.

As a consultant architectural technologist and former university lecturer in architectural technology, I focus on producing precise construction documentation, resolving technical challenges and coordinating design packages across disciplines and project stages.

Away from work, I enjoy hiking in the Peaks or getting stuck into a DIY project.
