We're looking for a Principal, Associate or Associate Director Landscape Architect to lead and grow a landscape architecture team in Leeds or Durham.
About the role:
You’ll be heading up the established landscape architecture discipline with live projects and clients and a strong existing pipeline. What’s missing is a leader to grow it into a team. As the Landscape Architecture lead, you’ll own the function end to end: leading client relationships, setting direction, and building and mentoring the team as the work grows.
Whether you’re the type of leader to come in and build quickly: winning new work, diversifying the portfolio, hiring around themselves; or someone who prefers to get under the skin of the practice first, deliver brilliantly, and grow the team as the pipeline earns it - your approach will be trusted and welcomed.
A mixed planning and design with strong planning focus, you’ll be working on a portfolio of projects focused around waste and minerals, renewables, and residential - with the opportunity to diversify if so desired / able.
You’ll have a great amount of autonomy, while also being well supported; with excellent training and development prospects and skill-nurturing. Those joining at Associate / Associate Director level will be on a realistic path to Directorship within the next 5-10 years.
Working for a small-to-medium sized, employee-owned business, you’ll feel recognised and valued here as an individual - while also benefitting from being part of a wider, diverse group of sister companies - offering job security and the ability to diversify work as the team grows.
Working pattern / arrangements:
This role can be worked from either the Leeds or Durham office, and offers a huge amount of flexibility. Whether you’re looking to work full-time, part-time, or condensed hours; want to split your time between locations; prefer a heavy office presence or WFH most of the week - whatever your needs and preferences, get in touch - all patterns / arrangements are open to discussion.
Salary & benefits:
- Circa £48,000 - £75,000
- Employee Owned company
- Opportunity to purchase extra annual leave
- Death in service
- Health cash plan
- Gym discounts
- Salary sacrifice schemes for new car leasing, bicycles, home and tech equipment, christmas saving etc
- Employee Assistance Programme
About you:
- 7-10+ years experience in landscape architecture / landscape planner
- Experience in renewables, waste & minerals, and/or residential
- Experience leading and supporting junior members of a team - experience growing a team desirable
- Strong project management and client facing experience
