About Us
Sims White is a progressive regional architectural practice proudly based in Toowoomba, specializing in Health Care, Education, Institutional, Residential and Heritage architecture. Formed in 2012, our firm is built on consistent performance and repeat clients. Being in a regional environment, we work on a wide range of projects both in their scale and type. We are proud to have been involved in some of the highest profile and complex projects in the region in the last few years. We have been consistently awarded for our work since our inception.
Living and working in a regional community is genuinely different to the big city – you will contribute directly to the community you live in as well as see your handiwork regularly. You will also see a significantly larger range of work and scales, as well as greater autonomy and the ability to see a project from start to finish.
We are highly innovative in our use of REVIT software pushing its capabilities to improve our performance and the quality of our outputs. We recognize our staff are the key to our success and that because everyone is different. As a result, we offer a flexible and supportive working environment founded on mutual obligations. We have low staff turnover and are looking for someone to join our team for the long-term.
Sims White Architects offer a flexible working environment, professional development and mentoring, and long-term prospects. There will be times when deadlines are short and pressure intense, but on the whole you will find work/life balance easier to manage in our regional city.
