Job description

We’re looking for an Urban Designer to join our team at WSP. You’ll help shape creative, sustainable, and people-focused places across the Middle East — contributing to innovative master plans that respond to the region’s growth, climate, and cultural context.

This role offers the opportunity to work on large-scale, design-led urban projects alongside a multidisciplinary team of designers, planners, engineers, and sustainability experts. You’ll be involved in all stages of the design process — from concept development to detailed planning — while learning from experienced mentors and contributing your own ideas to help shape the cities of tomorrow.

Responsibilities

  • Support the design and delivery of master planning and urban design projects across the region.
  • Assist in developing design concepts, layouts, and visual materials that communicate strong ideas and project vision.
  • Prepare drawings, diagrams, reports, and presentations for clients and internal teams.
  • Use design and analytical tools such as AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp, Rhino, and GIS to support spatial analysis and design outputs.
  • Collaborate with landscape architects, planners, engineers, and sustainability specialists to deliver coordinated, high-quality master plans.
  • Contribute to workshops and design charrettes, providing creative input and visual storytelling.
  • Support senior team members in research, site analysis, and design development, ensuring design quality and consistency.
  • Assist with proposal graphics, bid content, and project documentation as part of business development efforts.
  • Stay curious, continue learning, and engage with new digital tools, sustainability frameworks, and design trends shaping the future of urbanism.

Qualifications

  • A degree in Urban Design, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, or a related discipline; a master’s degree in Urban Design or Master planning is preferred.
  • 4 to 6 years of professional experience in urban design or master planning, ideally within the Middle East or on large-scale, mixed-use projects.
  • A strong creative mindset with the ability to generate innovative and context-sensitive design ideas.
  • Good visual communication and presentation skills, with an eye for detail and design quality.
  • Proficiency in software such as AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp, and MS Office; familiarity with Rhino, GIS, or data-visualisation tools like Power BI is an advantage.
  • A solid understanding of sustainable urbanism, placemaking principles, and integrating landscape-led design.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams.
  • A proactive attitude, openness to feedback, and enthusiasm for continuous learning and professional growth.
  • Membership (or eligibility) in a professional body such as RTPI, UDG, PIA, ASLA, or equivalent is desirable.
  • A passion for designing better, more liveable, and enduring urban environments.
