Landscape Architect

ŁNEG
Manchester, UK

This large environmental consultancy is looking for several landscape architects to help with project work progressing over the next 6 months.

In all cases they need good report writing skills and, for anyone with over 3 years experience, it must include landscape and visual impact assessments (LVIA) for major infrastructure projects. Your experience must be UK based, as they need good awareness of their EIA regulations and best practice. For people with less experience they would want good working knowledge of the main graphics programmes - AutoCAD, Sketchup, Photoshop or similar.

Their current projects are mainly landscape and visual assessment with some design working - hopefully increasing as projects progress. Their projects include the Severn Estuary SEA for tidal power options, a college campus design, LVIA for various types of projects including a science park, wind farms, Energy from Waste power stations, Park & Ride schemes, various highways schemes etc. Work is generated from a number of long running frameworks so they are reasonably confident in continuity - as sure as they can be at present, and their main in-house providers of work are their architects and engineers.

The team was set up about 1 year ago and there is a lot of scope for career development for the right candidates. Salary and flexible benefits packages will be good, as expected from a large company, and will be based on each individual's experience.
