Senior Urban Designers lead the creative and strategic development of large-scale urban projects. They are responsible for delivering masterplans, guiding public realm strategies, coordinating design teams, and engaging with stakeholders and clients throughout the design process. This role is ideal for professionals with 5–10 years of experience who can bridge design quality, delivery, and planning context.
Senior Urban Designers typically oversee junior staff, contribute to business development, and take design ownership across key projects such as town centre regenerations, housing-led masterplans, or mixed-use developments. Roles exist in planning consultancies, architecture and landscape firms, and local authority teams. For current salary benchmarks and growth advice, see our Urban Design Salary Guide.
