Senior Landscape Architect - ( 260000LC )
Description
Our growing Landscape Architecture team is looking for a Senior Landscape Architect to join us on a permanent basis, within our Canberra office. This is an exciting opportunity to collaborate with Stantec’s national landscape design team, delivering landscape architecture services to external and internal clients, both locally and across Australia
You will have the opportunity to contribute to the design, visualisation, and documentation of a wide range of landscape projects, including urban design led infrastructure and community development initiatives. Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams (planning, stakeholder engagement, ecology, environmental science, engineering, transportation planning) you will provide landscape design expertise and advice.
Our team specializes in urban public spaces, parks and open spaces, multiuse pathways, roadway enhancements, data centres, healthcare, commercial and residential developments, habitat enhancements, watercourse restoration, urban forestry, and Low Impact Development. We connect the people, places, and resources that take a project from concept to reality, in built form.

Day to day tasks would involve:
Conceptualize, design and document landscape architectural design packages, using a range of tools and programs.
Prepare supporting design documents, i.e. Design reports, Construction Specifications, Opinion of Probable Costs etc.
Support business development activities by contributing to proposals and presentations, and by building positive relationships with existing and potential clients.
Collaborate with the broader Landscape Architecture team and multidisciplinary project teams to promote and strengthen Landscape Architecture services across the business both internally and externally.
Stay informed on industry standards, emerging design trends, and best practices to enhance project quality and support ongoing professional development.
Build and maintain strong working relationships with new and existing clients.
