Landscape Architect Jobs
Evergreen Design Group

Position Overview Working under the direction and supervision of a Project Director, you will initiate the design process by learning the client's needs, researching code requirements, and incorporating those needs and requirements into your design. Those motivated by a desire to learn and take ownership of their assigned projects will find opportunities for professional growth within our organization. Essential Functions • All work will be conducted under the direction and supervision of the Project Director assigned to the project. • Research applicable codes, regulations, and design standards and become familiar with specific client design standards. • Ensure the site layout complies with jurisdictional landscape codes and relay any potential deficiencies to the Project Director so they can discuss them with the client to avoid any potential comments from the plan reviewer. • Research information on plants and materials readily available in the project locale as you produce plant and material schedules. • Prepare a landscape code analysis for the project and annotate these requirements clearly on the plan, showing both ‘required’ and ‘provided’ quantities. • Unless directed otherwise, assume planting plans will be designed to minimum code compliance while meeting client standards. • Prepare designs and submit them to the Project Director for review. Based on the project director's comments, make any necessary design adjustments. • Coordinate with clients, team members, and sub-consultants to ensure that designs are designed and implemented accurately and efficiently. • Be aware of project deadlines and complete assigned tasks on time to help meet those deadlines. • Participate, as requested, in project meetings with clients, design team, and/or contractors by listening, taking notes, and communicating when appropriate. • Review and comment on plans prepared by other in-house designers and landscape architects, and once you are satisfied with them, apply your landscape architect's seal and signature to them. • Stay informed about industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies in landscape architecture. • Respond to clients and team members within one business day (by the same time the next day) for all inquiries received. • Other duties as assigned. • To perform this job successfully, the successful applicant must be able to perform each of these key responsibilities satisfactorily. Reasonable accommodation may be provided to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform key responsibilities.
