Architectural assistants work in organisations of varying sizes, from small practice to large multi-disciplinary organisations.

Because their skills are transferable, they may work for other construction and design related businesses (e.g. property consultants, construction companies, planning authorities or interior designers). In collaboration with other members of a project team, architectural assistants respond to client requirements by preparing, reviewing, and refining building design through various media such as 3D modelling, drawings, and model making.
