Draftsperson

Production Drafter – Living Gems

Queensland | Full-time | Permanent

About Us

At Living Gems, we’ve been creating award-winning lifestyle resorts for over 40 years, and now we’re stepping into an exciting new chapter with Living Gems 2.0. While we’re not a start-up, our direction is fresh, innovative, and filled with opportunity. With three projects starting this year and many more on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to join us on the journey.

The Role

We’re looking for a Production Drafter who’s passionate about design, detail, and doing things the right way. You’ll be hands-on, customising block designs, plotting layouts, and producing clear and accurate documentation in ArchiCAD.

This isn’t a role where you’ll be hidden away in the background – you’ll be part of a close-knit team where everyone rolls up their sleeves, supports one another, and shares in the excitement of what we’re building.

A day in this role might start with a quick catch-up over coffee with the team to run through priorities, followed by time in ArchiCAD customising block layouts or finalising documentation. Midday, you might walk through a design challenge with one of our site managers or team members – bouncing around ideas until the solution feels just right. Afternoons are often a mix of focused drafting work and checking in with colleagues on progress, making sure everything ties together smoothly. No two days are exactly the same, but the common thread is teamwork, problem-solving, and the satisfaction of seeing designs come to life.

What We’re Looking For

We’d love to meet someone who’s not only technically strong but also a self-starter with initiative – someone who enjoys collaborating, problem-solving, and being part of a team that’s all mucking in together. You’re probably almost ready to step into a lead drafting role, and you’ll find plenty of room here to grow into that.

A little about you:

• Proficient in ArchiCAD
• Experience in residential or resort-style drafting is a plus
• Collaborative, approachable, and great at working with others
• Detail-focused but also flexible and solution-oriented
• Ambitious, with the confidence to take ownership of your work

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

• Be part of the Living Gems 2.0 journey – helping to shape the future of resort living
• A company with 40+ years of stability, but a fresh new vision
• A supportive, down-to-earth team where teamwork matters
• Exciting projects already in motion, with more in the pipeline
• Real opportunities to step into leadership as we grow

If this sounds like the kind of place where you’d thrive, we’d love to hear from you. Come and be part of the Living Gems team, where every person’s contribution really makes a difference. Send a resume and a cover letter addressed to Nicola, telling us why you are the right fit for our team.
