Conducting environmental studies, identifying impacts, and developing practical mitigation strategies.
Building strong relationships with regulators, clients, and stakeholders.
Providing expert advice on environmental policy, legislation, and best practice.
Supporting project teams to ensure delivery on time, within budget, and to the highest standards.


What we’re looking for:

Degree in Environmental Science, Engineering, or a related subject.
Full (or working towards) membership of a professional body such as IEMA (or equivalent).
Solid track record of delivering EIAs and environmental consultancy projects.
Strong understanding of UK environmental regulations and sustainability frameworks.
Excellent communication, client-facing, and project management skills.

What’s on offer:

A competitive salary and benefits package.
Private medical insurance, life assurance, accident cover and income protection.
Flexible working, including remote options.
Opportunities for career progression, training, and professional development.
The chance to be part of a supportive, collaborative, and forward-thinking team.
