We are looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated Senior or Principal Landscape Architect to be based in our Ruthin Office, Denbighshire, to support the wider multi-disciplinary team, act as Environmental Coordinator, and lead on landscape elements of infrastructure and other projects.

• A sound understanding of environmental management and mitigation on major infrastructure projects
• Understanding of the benefits of working collaboratively to achieve the best environmental and sustainable outcomes
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• Determination to see tasks through to completion, with excellent planning and organization skills
• Must hold a Full UK Driving Licence

Welsh language skills would be advantageous but are not essential.
