Job Title: Director of Architecture Landscape
Location: Manchester
Reference Number: LA250405
Salary: £80,000+

This high-performing UK consultancy continues to expand rapidly across planning, design, and environmental services—delivering standout results on complex developments in the residential and energy sectors. Known for its blend of technical strength and commercial insight, the business has ambitious plans to double in size over the next 3–5 years.

The landscape team plays a strategic role across the company’s projects, offering specialist input from site appraisal through to public inquiry. From LVIA and landscape planning to detailed site analysis, they’re involved at every step of the development lifecycle.

The consultancy fosters a collaborative, ambitious culture, empowering its senior team to lead, shape direction, and make an impact—while also offering the support and infrastructure to drive long-term career success.

About the Role

This is a senior leadership opportunity for a confident, commercially-minded Director of Architecture Landscape to take charge of a high-performing team, grow the business in the North West, and deliver high-value consultancy across a varied client base.

As a key leader within the business, you’ll play an active role in strategic business planning, client development, and team leadership, alongside overseeing the successful delivery of landscape projects with a strong emphasis on LVIA, landscape planning, and design advisory services.

The role is ideal for someone seeking a visible leadership platform—with opportunities to influence both regional operations and national strategy as part of the senior management team.

About You

  • You’re a highly experienced Chartered Landscape Architect, with a proven track record of delivering major landscape planning projects.
  • Deep understanding of LVIA and landscape strategy, with expertise in the residential, energy or infrastructure sectors.
  • Strong leadership background—able to inspire and mentor teams, while taking ownership of performance and growth.
  • Commercially astute and confident in business development, client engagement, and strategic planning.
  • You’re looking for a role where you can shape the direction of a growing business, while maintaining hands-on involvement with high-profile projects.

This role offers the scope, autonomy, and support to lead with purpose and make a lasting impact on the next chapter of growth.
