Our offices are friendly and sociable places offering a supportive working environment.

You will have relevant work experience in a landscape architecture practice or working on landscape projects within a multi-disciplinary consultancy working on LVIAs and similar.
You will have good knowledge of current UK planning and environmental assessment legislation. You will have the ability to develop designs, write reports, and be confident working with industry software.
We create a working environment that offers flexibility, adopting a hybrid approach to agile working and offer a wide range of benefits including a generous pension scheme, life assurance, private healthcare and a flexi-benefits package allowing you to choose benefits that are truly valuable to you.
