Our Sydney team is growing, and this role offers the opportunity to play an important part in that growth, contributing to design thinking, leading projects and working closely with our broader national team.

The role

You’ll work across a diverse portfolio of public realm, open space and urban projects, with opportunities to contribute from early strategic and conceptual thinking through to detailed design and construction.

- Be passionate, talented and a good communicator, able to work as part of primarily a local and then nationally based team.
- Ability to coordinate and work with a diverse in house and external consultant team.
