Description
We have a great opportunity for any early-career Landscape Architects looking to develop and build on their planning expertise and experience


This is a great chance for you to receive excellent support whilst you enhance your career, with a company that has a great reputation for positive impact, and a practice-what-they-preach ethos.


About the job:

You'll be working for an award-winning consultancy striving for sustainable development, climate change mitigation, and resilience.

As Consultant Landscape Planner you'd be responsible for providing support for a range of exciting projects on a diverse portfolio of schemes, giving you the opportunity to collaborate and knowledge-share with talented and experienced colleagues in planning, design, EIA, historic environment, ecology, GIS, visualisation, and transport.


Your role would include:

  • Desk based studies, site surveys (including photography) and data collection.
  • Assisting in preparation of LVIA chapters and associated technical appendices.
  • Assisting in preparation of landscape character and landscape sensitivity studies.
  • Assisting in the assessment and management of protected landscapes.
  • Liaising with clients and other specialists to ensure delivery of projects to time and budgetary constraints.


This is a permanent, full-time role, based on 37.5 hours per week - or 30 hours per week if preferred.

You would be working on a hybrid basis, working remotely up to 3 days per week, with some travel required for site work and visits to other offices.


You'll be part of a 100% employee-owned company, which means you will have the opportunity to actively participate in the management and direction of the company, and also directly benefit from the company's success through profit sharing.


Salary for the role is £25,000 - £31,000 per annum, with annual salary reviews, profit sharing bonuses, 25 days annual leave (plus bank hols and options to buy and sell extra holiday) and life insurance, among other benefits.


About you:


For this role we are seeking at least 1+ year experience in Landscape Architecture, with a relevant degree and a strong interest and/or experience in the planning side of Landscape Architecture.


Some previous experience or involvement in LVIA work, and some experience within the renewable and/or electricity grid sectors, or with local authorities and government agencies, would be desirable.

Competent photography skills would also be beneficial.

A full UK driving license and an enthusiasm for continuous learning and development are essential.
