Your impact

At Jacobs, we’re challenging today to reinvent tomorrow.

We are seeking Expressions of Interest from Architects, Architectural technicians and interior designers based in New Zealand, who are passionate about shaping the future of healthcare infrastructure in New Zealand.

Experience in public sector projects (hospitals, educational environments, or other types of complex infrastructure programmes)
A passion for design excellence and community impact
Strong collaboration skills and the ability to work across integrated project teams
A desire to be part of a transformational programme of national significance
