Ready to do work that actually excites you?

The client is a multidisciplinary design studio working across residential and commercial projects. The team is currently growing and has several projects in pricing, creating an opportunity for a highly experienced architectural professional to join the business remotely and work closely with the local design team and project coordinators.

This is an internal, non-client-facing position. The successful candidate will typically be paired with a designer across multiple projects and will report directly to the Director or a nominated designer depending on the project.

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Architectural Documenter / Architect with a strong residential background and experience working on Australian projects. You will be responsible for producing highly detailed and fully resolved construction documentation with minimal supervision. The role requires someone who can confidently take drawings from design development through to comprehensive documentation while maintaining a high level of technical accuracy.

The ideal candidate is someone who can work independently, make sound technical decisions, and maintain quality and productivity even when working without immediate day-to-day direction.

• Prepare comprehensive architectural construction documentation packages with minimal supervision.
• Develop detailed and fully resolved drawing sets rather than diagrammatic or indicative documentation.
• Produce documentation across residential and, where required, commercial projects.
• Translate design concepts into technically accurate construction documentation.
• Develop detailed architectural solutions covering:
  • Foundations
  • Floors
  • Walls
  • Ceilings
  • Roofs
  • Openings
  • Stairs
  • Joinery
  • Lighting
• Coordinate architectural and interior detailing as part of an integrated documentation process.
• Produce and maintain accurate 3D models in ArchiCAD.
• Coordinate documentation with designers and project coordinators.
• Review drawings for accuracy, completeness and constructability.
• Identify and resolve documentation issues independently.
• Carry work forward independently when working without immediate access to the local design team.
• Maintain clear written and verbal communication with the wider team.
