Your Role
Due to an increase in exciting projects within our industrial sector, we’re looking for a skilled and detail-driven Documentor to join our Melbourne office. This is a key role within our growing national practice, supporting the delivery of large-scale, complex projects across a diverse range of sectors. You’ll work closely with Architects, clients, consultants and builders to produce clear, coordinated and high-quality documentation that brings projects to life.

You’ll play an integral part in shaping design and documentation outcomes, coordinating consultants and ensuring project deliverables are issued accurately, efficiently and to a high standard.

We are ideally looking for a full-time candidate, but we are open to flexible arrangements for the right person. Please share your preferences in your application.

Your Responsibilities

• Deliver documentation packages and project tasks on brief, on time and on budget.
• Liaise with Senior Architects, Project Leaders and Associates, providing clear communication and regular project updates.
• Collaborate with project consultants and manage documentation timelines.
• Conduct QA checks to ensure internal standards are met before documents are issued.
• Support Graduates and Students on smaller tasks when required.
• Contribute to continuous improvement through project debriefs, learning sessions and knowledge sharing.

About You

• Advanced knowledge of architectural documentation practice and theory, including the NCC (BCA and Australian Standards).
• Strong Revit skills across concept design, design development and construction documentation.
• Industrial documentation experience (warehousing, logistics, manufacturing or distribution centres) is highly regarded, and experience on large-scale commercial or similarly complex projects will also be considered.
• Skilled in visual communication, including sketches, layouts, detail drawings and presentations, with proficiency in SketchUp, InDesign, Photoshop and Microsoft Office.
• Clear, professional communicator with a proven ability to build strong client and team relationships.
• Growth mindset, proactive and self-motivated, with excellent time management and problem-solving skills.

Our Company
At Watson Young, great design starts with a conversation. We approach every project with a good eye, and an even better ear, and that’s how we create spaces people genuinely love to be in.
Over 20 years, we’ve grown into a national practice of 100+ people across Melbourne, Geelong, Sydney, Perth and Brisbane, with projects in every state and territory. Our work moves between Commercial, Industrial, Residential, Multi-residential, Retail, Interior Design, Masterplanning and Education, so there’s always something new to work on, and plenty of variety in what lands on your desk.
Each office has its own local character, but we work as one team, sharing ideas and expertise across the country. And our no fuss, honest approach means our clients keep coming back, which is something we’re really proud of.

Our Values
Our values aren’t just words on a wall. They shape how we design, how we work with our clients and how we look after each other, every single day.

• Creative Listening: We lead by listening. Our practice is dedicated to maintaining a culture of creativity, inclusivity and collaboration amongst our team and clients. We are passionate about leading with questions to understand our clients, being receptive to new ideas, and designing with intent.
• Genuine Affect: We impact through design. We push the boundaries with purposeful innovation and the pursuit of excellence. We create conscious solutions that prioritise what matters to our clients. Our team are committed to positive change that goes beyond the built environment; it’s ingrained in our culture.
• Enduring Pride: We are proud of our legacy. We shape the future by creating meaningful experiences and designs that connect people and places. It begins with the relationships we develop within our practice, amongst our clients, and community, and it progresses into the spaces we transform. We strive to inspire and leave a lasting impact.

What is on Offer?
We take our work seriously, but we also believe work should be somewhere you look forward to being. Here’s what that looks like at WYA:

• A Culture Built on People: In an industry dominated by ego, we saw an opportunity to do something different. That’s why in 2004 we founded a human-centred practice with strong relationships at its heart, with our clients and with each other. Today, we’re proud to be Great Place to Work Certified, and we place as much importance on the strength of our culture as we do on the quality of our work.
• Our Work, Your Life: We recognise the importance of balance. We offer flexible work opportunities, including working from home, along with an extra paid day of leave each year, our Play Day, to spend doing whatever lights you up. You’ll also have access to confidential wellbeing support through our Employee Assistance Program.
• Room to Grow: We invest in our people for the long term. You’ll have a personal learning and development budget each year, regular Lunch & Learns and CPDs, mentorship from experienced industry professionals, and clear career pathways to help you grow with confidence.
• Celebrating Together: Every fortnight, our whole national team comes together to share updates, celebrate wins and present projects from across the country.
• The Other Perks: No two days are ever the same at WYA. From dogs in the office, table tennis tournaments and corporate sporting events, to volunteering days and End of Month Celebrations, there’s a little bit of something for everyone.
