About the Role

SNC-Lavalin Fayez Engineering is seeking a Design Manager (Landscape) to oversee and manage all landscape design activities across various projects. This full-time role operates within a Project Management Consultancy (PMC) environment, focusing on ensuring designs align with client requirements, project objectives, and regulatory standards. The position requires a minimum of 10 years of experience.

Role Overview

The Design Manager (Landscape) acts as the client representative for landscape design oversight. This involves a primary focus on review, governance, integration, and delivery assurance, rather than being the primary designer. The core responsibility is to ensure that consultants deliver coordinated, buildable, and compliant landscape designs that meet high-quality, sustainable, and integrated solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Lead and manage all landscape design activities from concept through detailed design and construction support.
Coordinate landscape design with multidisciplinary teams including architectural, civil, utilities, infrastructure, and MEP.
Review and validate landscape design submissions from consultants for compliance with project scope, quality standards, and regulations.
Ensure design integration across disciplines through regular design reviews and clash detection processes.
Develop, monitor, and manage the landscape design program aligned with overall project timelines.
Provide expert input on landscape design, covering planting strategies, irrigation, grading, drainage, and hardscape.
Review landscape concepts for functionality, sustainability, and aesthetic quality, ensuring the use of appropriate plant species (native, climate-appropriate, low-maintenance).
Assess environmental impact, soil conditions, hydrology, and long-term maintainability of proposed designs.
Verify implementation of sustainable design solutions, including water efficiency and green infrastructure.
Liaise with clients, authorities, and stakeholders for design approvals and compliance.
Participate in technical meetings with consultants and contractors to resolve design issues.
Support project reporting by providing updates on landscape design progress and risks.
Monitor design changes and assess their impact on cost, schedule, and quality. Support value engineering exercises for landscape elements without compromising quality.
Identify and mitigate design-related risks and technical challenges.
Provide technical support during construction phases, including responding to RFIs and reviewing shop drawings.
Oversee landscape implementation to ensure design intent is maintained.
Monitor site progress related to landscaping and coordinate with supervision teams.

Qualifications and Experience

A minimum of 10 years of experience in landscape design and management.
Proven ability to manage landscape design activities from concept through construction support.
Experience in a Project Management Consultancy (PMC) environment is preferred.
Strong technical knowledge in planting strategies, irrigation, grading, drainage, and hardscape.
Demonstrated understanding of sustainable design solutions and environmental impact assessment.
