Renovation & Extension Consultant – Registered Architect, Graduate Architect – Architectural Designer

Are you an experienced architect or designer with a strong background in the residential sector, ideally renovations and extensions? Do you want to leverage your expertise in a new, dynamic role that allows you to work flexibly while advising homeowners on their renovation projects? If so, we want to hear from you!

About Us

We are Independent Building Advice (IBA), offering independent, unbiased building advice to our clients to ensure the best outcomes. We guide them from design concept through to completion ensuring a smooth process.

We have a network of 21 trusted builders, a panel of designers and architects, and an in-house team of seasoned building professionals, all dedicated to achieving great results for our clients. We specialise in subdivisions, home renovations, extensions, and new builds. Our mission is to guide homeowners through the complexities of their projects, helping them make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and connect with the best professionals for their needs.

We work for the client, providing unbiased advice and support from initial planning to project completion. This is a unique opportunity to use your industry experience in a consultative, client-focused role, without the stress of running a design firm.

The role offers full-time hours with flexible work times, ideal for experienced professionals looking for autonomy and work-life balance.

About the Role

As a Renovation & Extension Consultant, you’ll work directly with homeowners who are planning to renovate or extend their properties. Your role is to provide expert guidance on design feasibility, budgeting, and builder selection. You’ll oversee projects from concept to key handover, ensuring the best outcomes for clients while maintaining quality and efficiency.

  • Renovation & Extension Focus: While we assist clients with new builds, your primary focus will be on renovations and extensions.
  • Flexible Work Options: Full-time or part-time hours available. This role is ideal for experienced professionals looking for a career shift with better work-life balance.
  • Work Autonomously: You’ll have the flexibility to work from home, our office (Home Base, Subiaco), at display homes, or visit clients on-site within a 20km radius of Perth.
  • High Earning Potential: Leads are provided, and high performers can expect to earn $150K+ per year.

Key Responsibilities

  • Client Engagement: Communicate with clients professionally via phone, email, and in-person meetings.
  • Advisory Role: Provide honest, expert advice on design feasibility, costs, and builder selection.
  • Project Oversight: Ensure projects stay on track and meet client expectations.
  • Organisational Excellence: Keep projects well-structured and efficiently managed.
  • Professional Presence: Present yourself in a semi-formal manner for client meetings.
  • Flexible Work Hours: Work around client availability (mostly during the day), including some after-hours and weekend meetings if required.

About You

To excel in this role, you must be:

  • Highly Organised & Detail-Oriented – Able to manage multiple projects efficiently.
  • A Strong Communicator – Confident in discussing projects, providing advice, and collaborating with clients and industry professionals.
  • Sales-Oriented – While sales experience is helpful, a natural ability to build rapport is key.
  • Self-Motivated & Independent – Capable of managing your own schedule and client interactions.
  • Qualified and Experience - Registered Architect, Architectural Graduate, Architectural Designer or Interior Designer. Must have a strong background in renovations and extensions.
  • Mobile & Tech-Savvy – Must have a laptop, phone, and a car for site visits.

Experience & Qualifications

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in the architecture, design, or building industry (architect, building designer, interior designer, renovation/extension consultant, or similar).
  • Strong interpersonal skills with a natural ability to build rapport and offer constructive advice.

Why Join Us?

We are a passionate and growing team dedicated to helping homeowners achieve their dream renovations. We believe in a win-win-win scenario:

  • Clients win by receiving great advice and avoiding pitfalls.
  • Builders win by working with educated, motivated clients who understand the realities of building.
  • IBA wins by bringing them together and ensuring the best outcomes.

We offer:

  • Comprehensive Training – In-house training to help you succeed in this advisory role.
  • A Unique Opportunity – Work as an independent consultant, without being tied to a single builder or design firm.
  • Flexible Work Arrangements – Set your own schedule and work autonomously.
  • High Earning Potential – Uncapped income based on performance.

If you’re ready to leverage your architecture or design experience in a new and rewarding way, apply today for a confidential discussion.

We appreciate all applications; however, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
