YTL Arena Bristol receives planning consent


Bristol will finally have an Arena! Planning consent was granted for the new TYL Arena in Filton on 4th March 2020. The historic Brabazon Hangars will be re purposed to house the UK third largest arena. It will be so exciting to bring back life into the amazing hangars in which all British Concords were built. It is a great honour to be involved with such an fantastic scheme. DHV Architects provided the heritage support for Grimshaw Architects.

DHV Architects are hiring

We are recruiting for a qualified architect with the ability to manage projects at all RIBA
work stages. Experience in historic building conservation is desirable but not essential:
Interest in good architecture and the historic environment; enthusiasm and a willingness to
learn are crucial. The ability to produce clear, legible and imaginative documentation is also
required.

We have a growing portfolio of design-focussed, residential, community, ecclesiastical,
conservation and cultural projects in the southwest, often involving a combination of
feasibility, new-build, adaptive re-use and repair elements. A large proportion of our
projects involve heritage sites and historic landscapes, but we also have a growing sector of Passivhaus and developer-led projects.

We have a friendly, focussed office of six architectural staff (plus admin staff), close to the
Stokes Croft area of Bristol. We are Mac and AutoCAD-based.
Salary is dependent on experience but will be commensurate with RIBA salary survey levels.

Please reply to info@dhva.co.uk with a summary CV, some examples of work including
technical drawings, and a brief covering email explaining your motivations in architecture
and some of your influences. All applications will be treated in strict confidence.
