Tasks
-🏆 Design Refinement: Work with the PIC or Sr. Associate to shape designs that dazzle, or come up with new ideas that outshine the competition. -🧲 Leadership & Mentorship: Teach, inspire, and occasionally dazzle younger staff with your sweet design moves. -👩💼 PM Duties: Manage small-to-medium projects while keeping your cool (and your sense of humor) intact. -⏲️ Deadlines & Quality: Help everyone hit the mark with time to spare—deadlines aren’t mere suggestions. -🏆 Lead and Mentor: Show off those leadership superpowers by guiding production staff and occasionally reminding them that coffee is not a suitable CAD layer name. -🤝 Collaborative Spirit: Conspire with senior staff, consultants, clients, and maybe even the office goldfish to ensure every project is a showstopper. -📅 Scope & Schedule: Keep an eagle eye on the contract, scope, schedule, goals, and budget. (Nobody likes surprise budget overages… except maybe your local coffee shop.) -🔧 Technical Guidance: With a dash of senior support, you can tackle grading, drainage, lighting, planting, and details like a champ. -💬 Client Communication: Coordinate with client reps as directed by PM/PIC—just maybe skip the emojis in official emails. (Or do, if that’s their style.) -🔍 Research: Lead materials and product research. (Bonus points if you discover who invented the spork along the way.) -🤝 Consultant Coordination: Stay on top of consultant scopes, schedules, and deliverables, so they don’t go poof into the void. -🏢 Stakeholder Coordination: Schmooze with clients, consultants, and agencies like you’re hosting a star-studded gala. -🤲 Resource Management: Ensure your team’s workload is balanced—no one likes to discover they’re double-booked after five cups of coffee. -💰 Budget & Schedule: Keep the timeline tight and the piggy bank intact—no one wants to break it. -📐 Construction Docs: Oversee drafting wizardry in CAD—lines so perfect they could be in a geometry museum. -🗓️ Meeting Setup: Organize internal and consultant meetings—extra points if you make them fun. -📝 Work Planning: Create and track work plans like a to-do list on steroids (color-coding optional but fun). -🏙️ Site Visits: Participate in on-site adventures—bring sturdy shoes and your best sense of direction.

What You Bring
Are you the kind of design wizard who can wield CAD like a magic wand, juggle tasks like a caffeinated circus clown, and still make time to teach the new kid how to pen the perfect plant detail? If you answered “Yes” (or at least wiggled your eyebrows in excitement), we need you as our Landscape Designer! WANTED: MASTER OF VECTORS & PUNCHLISTS -🧩 Team Dynamics: Understand who does what, when, and why—like a master puzzle-solver on a healthy dose of adrenaline. -🏗️ Construction Docs: Familiar with specs and knows how to produce documents so good, the contractors might actually read them. -🤝 Representation: Confidently speak on behalf of the firm (crown and scepter optional) in front of consultants and partners. -⏳ 4–8 Years of professional design & management prowess (or super-secret alter ego experience—we won’t judge). -🎓 Degree in Landscape Architecture, Architecture, or Planning. (A minor in “Office Karaoke” is optional but appreciated.) -🏗️ Project Management: Can handle small-to-medium projects without breaking a sweat, or sub-PM on the really big stuff (with a safety net, of course). -🖥️ Illustrative Prep: Direct and dabble in creating stunning visuals (Adobe Suite, hand sketches, interpretive dance—whatever gets the point across). -🔀 Flexible Support: Be ready to switch roles like a trusty Swiss Army knife: manage projects or back up another PM as sub-PM/production. -🖌️ Software Savvy: CAD, Adobe Suite, and maybe a little wizardry with the occasional 3D software—plus you enjoy sharing that knowledge with fresh talent.
