Job Description

With eight design studios worldwide, chances are you've encountered our work. We specialise in architecture, landscape architecture, interior design, and urban design. Our diverse, multi-disciplinary team brings together a wealth of skills and perspectives that unlock the economic, social, and cultural potential of projects.

Across our studios we connect insight and creativity, creating a better future by designing the world’s best places – places people love, is what drives us.

At Hassell, we're dedicated to sustainability and regenerative design. Our designers play a pivotal role in shaping a better future for communities and our planet. Join us in making a lasting impact.

We're looking for an experienced Architectural Project Leader or Associate to play a key role in supporting the design quality and successful delivery of some of Queensland's most significant projects.

Working alongside project and sector leaders, you'll contribute across a portfolio of complex health and civil infrastructure projects, helping teams navigate challenging design, technical and coordination issues while ensuring design intent is maintained through delivery.

This is a role for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, bringing clarity to difficult project situations, and helping project teams achieve high-quality outcomes. You'll work across multiple projects rather than being tied to a single commission, providing guidance, mentoring and technical leadership where it matters most.

What you'll be doing

  • Supporting project teams through complex design and delivery challenges
  • Helping maintain design quality throughout documentation and construction phases
  • Reviewing and resolving technical, coordination and constructability issues
  • Working closely with project leaders, consultants and specialist advisors
  • Contributing to project reviews, quality assurance and design governance processes
  • Mentoring architects and emerging project leaders across the studio
  • Collaborating across architecture, landscape architecture and interior design teams.

  • Strong technical and documentation capability
  • Confidence navigating multidisciplinary project environments
  • The ability to balance design intent with practical project delivery requirements
  • A collaborative approach and a willingness to support others
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

Health experience is not essential. We're more interested in people who enjoy working on complex projects, solving challenging design and delivery issues, and helping teams produce exceptional work.

  • 16 weeks paid parental leave for both primary and secondary carers.

About Hassell

We are a leading international design practice with studios in Asia, Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Our purpose is to create a better future by designing the world’s best places – places people love.

Our design values are shared globally across all our studios, by the talented people who work in them: architects, interior designers, landscape architects, urban designers, planners and specialist consultants.

We work across a broad range of scales, from the interior design of a boutique retail store through to major public architecture and strategic urban planning for cities. And we work together in integrated design teams because they produce the best outcomes for our clients.

Our focus is on people and how we create better, more meaningful experiences for them. We do that through creative, holistic thinking, a deep knowledge base and a rigorous design process.

We judge the success of the buildings and places we design by the way people use and enjoy them - the clients who commission them, the people who inhabit them.

We are a Certified B Corp.
