Your impact

Great places don't happen by accident.

At Jacobs, we're helping deliver some of New Zealand's most significant infrastructure projects and we're looking for a Landscape Architect to join our Auckland team.

Working alongside experienced landscape architects, urban designers, architects, planners and engineers, you'll contribute to projects that shape how communities connect, move and interact with their environment.

We're looking for someone who is a few years into their landscape architecture career and ready for their next challenge.

You’ll enjoy design, think creatively and have a genuine interest in shaping places that improve people's experience of their communities and environment. You thrive in collaborative environments, enjoy working with a range of disciplines, and are comfortable balancing both creative and technical aspects of project delivery.

We're looking for someone who is curious, proactive and keen to learn.

Most importantly, you’ll be excited by the opportunity to work on meaningful projects, learn from experienced practitioners, and help grow our Connected Cities team in New Zealand.

If you're looking for a role where you can develop your career while helping shape future communities across New Zealand, we'd love to hear from you.

With safety and flexibility always top of mind, we’ve gone beyond traditional ways of working so you have the support, means and space to maximize your potential.

• From paid parental leave to a lifetime financial allowance for you and your partner to access family forming Fertility & IVF treatment, adoption, and surrogacy assistance along with menopause and Low T treatment.
• We are steadfast in our commitment to the wellbeing of you and your loved ones with a comprehensive suite of wellbeing resources supporting you physically, emotionally and financially.
• This is demonstrated in our company being recognised by WGEA for 12 consecutive years as an employer of choice for gender equality along with our industry leading GOLD employer status by the Australian Workplace Equality Index.
• You’ll uncover flexible working arrangements, benefits and opportunities, from well-being benefits to our global giving and volunteering program, to exploring new and inventive ways to help our clients make the world a better place.
