Jobbeschreibung

Our Opportunity

Veris Design is built on the belief that great places start with great ideas. While we continue to invest heavily in digital innovation, data-driven decision-making and emerging technologies, we remain committed to the craft of urban design and the power of human creativity.

We are looking for a designer who is equally comfortable sketching ideas live in a client workshop as they are leveraging advanced digital tools to communicate, test and enhance those ideas. Someone who understands that technology should support great design thinking, not replace it.

At Veris, we help shape the communities and places where people live, work, and connect. We bring together urban designers, planners, surveyors, GIS specialists and advisory professionals to deliver projects that create lasting value for clients and communities across Australia.

Our Urban Design team has a strong pipeline of work across a diverse range of projects, from growth area planning and large-scale residential communities through to mixed-use precincts, strategic masterplans and place-based advisory work. We collaborate closely with private developers, government agencies and infrastructure providers to deliver creative, commercially informed and highly practical outcomes.
