Buttress Associate chosen to be RIBA judge

Associate Liz Jackson has been selected by the RIBA as a regional judge to its annual RIBA awards.

Liz, who leads the practice’s marketing function, holds an architecture degree from the University of Newcastle and has worked in marketing roles for more than 20 years.

Liz will be part of the North West regional panel which is responsible for shortlisting and carrying out a rigorous on-site assessment of entries submitted from the region. The regional panel also makes recommendations as to which buildings will be put forward for a RIBA National Award.

For 50 years the RIBA awards and prizes for buildings have championed and celebrated the best architecture in the UK and around the world. Last year, Buttress project, Timekeepers Square, was one of six RIBA award winners across the North West region.

Entries for this year’s awards are open until Thursday 21 February and site visits will follow.
