Job Description:

Senior Landscape Architect

An award-winning, design-led landscape architecture and masterplanning practice is seeking an experienced Senior Landscape Architect to join its growing team. Renowned for its collaborative, people-focused ethos, the practice delivers high-quality, sustainable design across a broad range of sectors, including residential, mixed-use, strategic land, and infrastructure.

This is an exciting opportunity for a proactive and skilled designer to lead complex projects, mentor junior team members, and play a key role in shaping the studio’s evolving portfolio. The role offers significant responsibility and autonomy across all project stages — from early concept development to technical delivery — with the opportunity to contribute strategically to both design and practice development.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the design and delivery of large-scale, multidisciplinary landscape projects.
• Manage client and stakeholder relationships, including leading meetings and presentations.
• Oversee project programmes, resourcing, and financial tracking in collaboration with directors.
• Provide mentorship and guidance to junior and mid-level team members.
• Coordinate with internal and external teams, including architects, engineers, and planning consultants.
• Review and ensure the quality of design outputs, including masterplans, planning submissions, technical packages, and specifications.
• Support the development of best practice, innovation, and sustainability within the design process.

Ideal Candidate:

• Degree in Landscape Architecture and fully qualified CMLI.
• Significant UK-based consultancy experience, ideally including team leadership or project management roles.
• Strong design sensibility with excellent technical knowledge and a keen understanding of UK planning and construction processes.
• Proficient in design and documentation tools (AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp; Revit and GIS advantageous).
• Confident communicator with the ability to build strong relationships and advocate for design quality.
• Passionate about place-making, sustainability, and delivering meaningful public realm projects.

Additional Information:

• Flexible working options across multiple UK studios, including hybrid arrangements.
• Supportive, inclusive studio environment with structured career development and CPD.
• Opportunities to contribute to strategic growth, design reviews, and thought leadership within the practice.
