What you'll bring

· Strong organisational skills to effectively manage time, prioritise and manage multiple tasks while consistently meeting deadlines

· Excellent problem solving, analytical skills and attention to detail

· Expert communication skills

· Adaptability with a growth mind-set

· Resilience and a sense of humour will come in handy also

What you can look forward to

At O'Neil+ Architecture we are proud of our culture and working environment, we are committed to fostering a sense of community, and a space that's inspiring to work.  Every one of us has an important role to play in achieving success for our studio and we are all prepared to do what it takes to help each other succeed.

Full training, support and flexible hours will be provided to the perfect candidate.

You will be rewarded with a competitive salary and the opportunity to work alongside some highly experienced professionals in the industry as well as developing and nurturing your own skills and expertise.
