Westwind Landscape Construction is looking to hire an individual for an experienced landscape architect/project manager position. This position is unlike other landscape architect positions because at Westwind, we don’t just create plans and designs for customers but we also bring them to life. At Westwind, you would be responsible for seeing a project through all phases; inception through final construction.
The ideal candidate will possess the following:
- Proven experience in landscape architecture, including project management
- Proficiency in AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite, MicroStation, GIS, Sketchup, and other design software
- Strong knowledge of irrigation systems, landscape construction practices, and construction techniques
- Excellent communication and presentation skills
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team
- Professional licensure as a Landscape Architect is preferred but not required
- Experience with project estimating is a plus
Westwind offers competitive benefits to include medical (Westwind pays 80% of medical for all eligible employees), dental and vision insurance, paid time off and a 401k plan. The work schedule is Monday through Friday with some occasional weekend work required. This is an in-office position based out of Albuquerque, New Mexico. For candidates out of state, we would assist with relocation costs. Potential salary range is $100,000 - $150,000.

Our customers include Albuquerque Public Schools, Bernalillo County, City of Albuquerque, City of Rio Rancho, Rio Rancho Public Schools and the University of New Mexico.
Every day brings something different and workdays at Westwind are never mundane. We value work/personal life balance and although we run lean and mean, we tend to stick to a traditional work schedule and minimize working additional time.
