Partnerships & Client Care Coordinator

About Us Stride Treglown is an employee-owned architectural and design practice and a certified B Corp. Since 1953, we have believed that great design requires a human approach, deep local knowledge, and specialist expertise. We are one of the UK’s largest practices, with over 300 specialists working across nine studios. As a 100% Employee-Owned Trust, our colleagues are genuine stakeholders in our collective success. We work collaboratively, without ego, and are committed to delivering projects that make a positive contribution to our communities and the environment.

By providing proactive client intelligence, partnership support, and practical coordination, you will enable our directors to focus their time on high-value, outward-facing activity. While elements of the role are operational, it is a strategically important position with real influence over how we build, maintain, and strengthen relationships. You will work closely with the wider Winning Work team, supporting directors and senior leaders through insight, structure, and thoughtful coordination. The Winning Work team is based across Bath, Bristol, and Plymouth. The preferred location for this role is Bath or Bristol, with flexibility to travel to other studios as required.

Researching clients, business structures, and relevant industry news ahead of meetings and events. Preparing client biographies and company profiles. Researching event attendees to support purposeful engagement. Client Relationship & Partnership Support Enabling consistent, high-quality engagement with clients and key partners. This will involve: Maintaining accurate client and relationship data in Rapport3 (our CRM system). Tracking and recording client interactions. Preparing client intelligence briefings for meetings and key engagements. Supporting Key Account Managers with reporting and insight. Ensuring client touchpoints are logged and followed up. Supporting the development and maintenance of Partnership Charters. Coordinating milestone celebration events with key clients and delivery teams. Company-Wide Client Experience Enablement Helping colleagues deliver a consistently excellent client experience, while enabling directors to focus their time on high-value activity through executive and meeting coordination. This includes: Coordinating diaries for directors and the Senior Leadership Team, particularly around Key Account Managers and key client meetings. Reducing scheduling friction and back-and-forth communication. Preparing and distributing meeting papers, agendas, and follow-up actions. Ensuring all attendees are well-prepared with the right information ahead of meetings. Stride Treglown is registered as a Disability Confident Committed Employer.
