> D2B · Metro Manila, Philippines (Remote) · Full-time · Posted 2026-08-19

**Salary:** unknown currency 85,000–155,000

**Workplace:** remote

**Department:** RecOps

## Description

We're looking for an experienced Landscape CAD Draftsperson with strong construction documentation skills and 3D rendering capability to join our growing team. With hands on Vectorworks experience.

ABOUT THE COMPANY: 

The client is a Melbourne-based landscape design studio, specialising in native and climate-adaptive gardens for residential clients across Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula. The company's philosophy is simple: every project starts with a clear plan that resolves layout, levels, materials, and planting before anything is built - so construction happens without guesswork, miscommunication, or costly rework.

The studio's process runs in two stages: a concept report developed locally with the client, followed by detailed construction drawings. They're growing the team to bring the construction drawing stage in-house on an offshore basis, freeing up our local design team to focus on new client work while drawings progress in the background.

ROLE OVERVIEW:

We're looking for a skilled CAD draftsperson to take finalised landscape design concepts and turn them into accurate, buildable construction drawing sets. This is a genuine long-term team role, not a one-off gig - we're investing in someone who wants to grow with the business, not just complete tasks.

The ideal candidate is confident in producing both construction drawings and photorealistic renders, giving us a single point of contact who can carry a project from concept through to construction-ready documentation.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

-   Convert approved concept designs into detailed, accurate construction drawing sets (setout plans, levels, sections, details, planting plans, and material schedules).
-   Work primarily in Vectorworks to ensure drawings are consistent with the client's existing file standards and templates.
-   Produce photorealistic or presentation-quality renders to support client approvals, where required.
-   Liaise with the Founder and the local design team to clarify design intent, resolve details, and incorporate feedback.
-   Maintain drawing accuracy for levels, drainage falls, and material junctions so drawings are genuinely buildable on site.
-   Manage your own workflow and deadlines across multiple concurrent projects, flagging risks or delays early.
-   Keep drawing files, layers, and naming conventions organised and consistent across projects.

## Requirements

-   Proven, verifiable proficiency in **Vectorworks is required**.
-   Background in landscape architecture, landscape design, or architectural drafting, ideally with residential project experience.
-   Understanding of construction documentation: setout, levels, sections, details, and materials - not just drafting for visual presentation.
-   Rendering skills (e.g. Lumion, Enscape, Twinmotion, or similar) are a strong advantage.
-   Strong written English for clear communication with the Australian-based team.
-   Reliable internet connection and the ability to work overlapping hours with an Australian (Melbourne, AEST/AEDT) team.

What We're Looking For

Technical skill matters, but it's not the only thing we're hiring for. We value:

-   Genuine attention to detail - drawings that are accurate the first time, not just "close enough."
-   Strong work ethic and reliability - someone who owns their workload and communicates proactively.
-   A long-term mindset - we're looking to invest in this role and grow it over time, not treat it as disposable outsourced labour.
-   Honesty about your actual skill level and software experience - we'd rather know upfront than discover gaps later.

## Benefits

-   Full time - Remote/WFH
-   Australian client / Dayshift
-   Competitive Salary
