• Supporting site visits and project coordination where required.

• Clear communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively.

What we offer

You’ll join a dedicated team of landscape architects and designers, with opportunities to work closely with experienced colleagues and contribute to a varied portfolio of projects.

You’ll develop your skills across different aspects of landscape practice, helping to create
