The practice places a strong emphasis on shared authorship, where ideas are developed and strengthened collectively.
You'll be joining a team where design thinking and project delivery are equally important, with the opportunity to have a genuine influence on projects from early strategy and masterplanning through to the delivery of places and public spaces.
The practice also puts a strong focus on people and wellbeing, with a culture built around mutual respect and giving people opportunities to grow. Recent team appointments and internal progression also highlight a strong emphasis on developing and retaining talent.
