Description

APAC Design Lead
At Populous, our teams

design the places where people love to be together. We are a unique global design company built on the philosophy and power of

drawing people together to have incredible experiences. The spaces and experiences we create inside of these venues and our projects are equally important to the overall architectural look and feel.

We have designed iconic projects all over the world that encompass


Design Lead role


We are currently on the lookout for a world-class Design Lead to take us forward into the future as we continue the development of all design-related aspects of our work, working hand-in-hand with our architectural and interior design teams.


Our future Design Lead will:

  • Influence the design culture and encourage team members to pursue designbased solutions.
  • Naturally coach, mentor and develop our next generation of designers.
  • Instill a culture where great ideas can come from anyone at any time.
  • Undertake design reviews and highlight potential improvements.
  • Work closely with our project design teams in a lead role to provide key design aspects and direction.
  • Work closely with our sustainability team to implement holistic design processes.
  • Create and implement guidelines for clearer understanding and easier compliance.
  • Encourage physical pinups of projects so each office is engaged.
  • Review usage of current platforms (3D and graphic) to improve workflows.
While this role is an APAC role, with regular travel required, we would ideally like for the incumbent to be

located in either our Brisbane, Sydney, or Melbourne offices.
This role will work alongside our design teams to positively influence and guide the Populous design direction.

This role will also work closely with our APAC Directors, ensuring this role is positioned at a senior level within the company.
