Oderings Landscaping Job Application
Christchurch Landscaping - Landscape Architect / Landscaper (Hybrid Role)
Type: Full-time / Permanent
At Oderings, we’re not just designing gardens — we’re helping people create spaces they love to live in.
We’re looking for a Landscape Designer who enjoys both the creative side of design and getting out on site to bring those ideas to life. This is a hands-on, varied role with real opportunity to grow.
About the role
This is not a desk-only design job.
You’ll be working with clients to design outdoor spaces, but also getting involved on-site — placing plants, supporting installs, and helping ensure designs are delivered properly.
When design work is quieter, you’ll be part of the landscaping team, getting stuck in and learning the practical side of what makes a great garden work.
There’s also an exciting opportunity to help us build and grow a future online landscape design offering, so if you’ve got ideas in that space, we want to hear them.
What you’ll be doing
- Meeting with clients and turning ideas into practical designs
- Creating concept and planting plans
- Visiting sites, measuring, and problem-solving
- Supporting installs, plant placement, and landscaping work
- Working closely with our landscaping team to bring designs to life
- Contributing ideas to help grow our design services (including online opportunities)
What we’re looking for
You might be early in your career or already experienced — what matters most is your attitude.
- Experience or training in landscape design
- Good plant knowledge (or a strong willingness to learn)
- Comfortable talking to clients
- Happy to roll up your sleeves and work on-site
- Practical, team-focused, and reliable
- Interest in growing something new, not just maintaining the status quo
Why Oderings Landscaping
- Work across both design and hands-on landscaping
- Be part of a well-known and trusted brand
- Variety — no two days are the same
- Opportunity to shape and grow a new part of the business
- Supportive team environment
This role suits someone who:
- doesn’t want to sit behind a desk all day
- enjoys both creativity and physical work
- wants to be part of building something, not just doing a job
If that sounds like you, apply now.
Note:
- All candidates need to successfully complete a pre-employment drug and alcohol screening and an ACC pre-employment check.
- Applicants for these positions should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.
