Edinburgh, United Kingdom LUC Full time

Director, Environmental Planning
With nearly six decades leading the way in environmental consultancy, LUC is dedicated to shaping a brighter future for nature, people, and places. LUC’s creative and forward-thinking teams tackle complex land use challenges at every scale. We're all about innovation and collaboration, and as we expand further, we're looking for passionate individuals to grow with us and make a positive impact.

Our company Charter provides the framework for us to live our values, in a working environment where our people can contribute meaningfully to projects that genuinely support sustainable development.

We are a multidisciplinary company, with integrated services encompassing planning, impact assessment, landscape design, ecology, and geospatial analysis, with clients across both public and private sectors. Each office has its own personality and we truly believe they are all great collaborative spaces to nurture and develop our talent.

We offer an excellent remuneration and benefits package, appreciating there is more to a great place to work than the salary

LUC is seeking to appoint a Director in our Edinburgh office, to further develop our EIA and wider impact assessment services. Our specialist EIA teams are involved in some of Scotland’s, and the wider UK’s, most important projects, including nationally significant infrastructure projects which facilitate the decarbonisation of the energy system as well as helping to secure biodiversity enhancement.

You will join a UK-wide team of environmental planners who are leaders in the field of EIA with extensive experience in renewable energy and energy infrastructure impact assessment. You will work across the company, building our portfolio of impact assessment projects in both the energy sector and others.

The role will suit an individual prepared to take an active role in leading and growing a team as well as generating new business within our existing sectors and additional sectors of interest to the Director and wider team.

This position will offer opportunities for continued progression in a key leadership role for an individual who is a competent manager and respected project director, with the aspiration to progress in a practice where flexibility is not a barrier to career development.

Salaries for director level roles depend on experience and will be discussed individually.

As a senior manager and local office leader, you must be able to demonstrate sound leadership competencies and model positive behaviours in accordance with LUC’s culture and ethos, including:

Planning and organising.
Resilience, emotional intelligence.
Integrity / ethical / environmental awareness.
Motivation of others / coaching & mentoring.
Relationship building.

LUC is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and we actively encourage applications from under-represented groups. We value the differences, needs and contributions a diverse workforce represents, and we strive to embed equality, diversity and inclusion in all our people related activ ities.

Career Growth: We're committed to your professional development, offering mentorship, training, and opportunities for advancement.

We embrace fresh ideas and encourage creativity.

Work-Life Balance: Flexible work arrangements and wellness programs help you thrive both in and out of the office. We are proud to offer hybrid working (2 days office and 3 day s home if full time)

Community: Be part of a highly supportive, diverse and inclusive team
