What You’ll Do:

• Lead with Purpose– Take ownership of environmental compliance on-site, ensuring we meet ISO 14001 standards and go beyond the basics to embed sustainability into everything they do.
• Turn Data into Action– Monitor environmental factors like water, dust, noise, and waste, and translate your findings into practical improvements that make a real difference.
• Spotlight What Matters– Carry out regular site inspections, celebrating great practice and swiftly addressing any issues – your insights will help keep the project on track and environmentally sound.
• Own the Plan– Develop, maintain, and evolve the Environmental Management Plan, ensuring it’s not just a document, but a living, breathing part of the project’s success.
• Collaborate to Succeed– Work hand-in-hand with engineers, site teams, and stakeholders to embed environmental thinking into every decision and build strong, lasting relationships.

• Big Picture Thinker– You understand how environmental design impacts people, places, and projects – and you know how to balance ambition with practicality.
• Professionally Qualified– You’re an IEMA Practitioner or above (Chartered is a big plus), and you bring both technical know-how and a passion for sustainability.
