• Prepare and test design options, producing diagrams, visualisations and illustrative material
• Produce high‑quality drawings, 3D models, renders and graphics to clearly communicate design intent
• Prepare urban design reports, design guidelines and supporting documentation
• Manage small to medium‑scale design packages with a level of autonomy, while supporting senior designers on complex projects
• Coordinate with internal disciplines and external consultants to integrate technical inputs
• Assist with stakeholder and community engagement activities, incorporating feedback into design refinement

About You

You hold a degree in Urban Design, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Planning or a related built‑environment discipline and bring 2–5 years’ experience working in an urban design role, ideally within a consultancy, government or design studio environment. You are confident using industry design tools such as Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp, Rhino, AutoCAD and GIS, and you take pride in producing clear, visually engaging and well‑considered design outputs. You combine strong spatial and analytical thinking with a collaborative mindset, communicate effectively through drawings, text and presentations, and are motivated to contribute to urban places that are sustainable, inclusive and people‑focused.
