Aspect Personnel is looking to recruit a Landscape Architect on a contract basis for a small design studio in Blackburn. They have a strong pipeline of work across Greater Melbourne including schools, childcare centres, public playgrounds, and other play spaces.

• Ability to import consultant drawings into AutoCAD as references to form base plans for landscape development
• Ability to manipulate and edit references in AutoCAD to make them suitable for use as base plans
• Ability to translate “hard copy” sketch plans into AutoCAD plans to produce digital concepts, design development and contract documentation plans
• Ability to prepare detailed documentation plans in AutoCAD (set-out, surfaces, grading, planting, details) under direction
• Ability to prepare cross sections using AutoCAD to illustrate levels and spatial proportions
• Ability to use Photoshop / Illustrator to prepare coloured illustrative concept plans / master plans for presentation

 Desirable, but not essential;

• Ability to geo-reference AutoCAD plans for preparation of set-out coordinates for set-out plans
• Ability to prepare photomontage images in Photoshop, usually over site images
• Ability to generate 3d models using sketch-up, and prepare illustrative images from these in Photoshop
