Design Coordinator

Melbourne
$100,000–150,000 + super

This is a job that gives you a rare mix of stability, variety and autonomy. You’ll work on a broad range of commercial projects while enjoying long-term job security thanks to a repeat client that keeps the pipeline full.

You won’t be stuck doing the same thing every day. The projects cover multiple sectors and types, so your experience will keep growing. And you’ll be part of a team that’s just the right size – enough support when you need it, but no micromanagement when you don’t.

You’ll have real input into buildability, compliance and permits – not just passing drawings around. That means your work will shape how projects get delivered, giving you a stronger sense of ownership and impact.

There’s also flexibility built in. You’ll be trusted to get on with things your way, with guidance available whenever you want it. It’s a solid balance between backing your expertise and being there when you need a hand.

What you’ll do

You’ll manage and coordinate the design process across all project stages, making sure everything stays aligned with construction methodology, buildability and compliance. Your work will support the delivery of high-quality commercial projects, giving you hands-on experience across pre-construction, ECI and delivery phases.

You’ll review drawings to check feasibility, spot risks and resolve design clashes before they become problems on site. You’ll also work closely with consultants, engineers, subcontractors and internal teams to keep everything running smoothly and on schedule.

What you’ll need

• Architectural design background
• Ideally 5+ years’ experience
• Experience at a commercial builder would be beneficial
