  • Working collaboratively with design teams to ensure environmental considerations are appropriately taken into account, as well as developing sustainable initiatives
  • Working in partnership with other members of the wider business
  • Managing resources, delegating activities, monitoring and managing project budgets (with support as applicable)
  • Leading and supporting business opportunities and associated fee and technical proposal development
  • Promoting AECOM's environmental services to both internal and external audiences.

Qualifications:

You'll have:

  • Experience of providing consultancy services to the energy sector
  • An excellent understanding of the EIA processes, environmental assessment methods and applicable planning legislation
  • A detailed understanding of relevant consenting and licensing regimes
  • Confidence when engaging with a wide variety of stakeholder groups
  • The ability to work collaboratively as part of an established team, coordinating inputs from specialist technical teams
  • Excellent verbal and report writing skills, including technical reviewing
  • Project management skills, including programming, staff resource management and budget management
  • A degree in a relevant environmental discipline and an appropriate professional membership
  • Willingness to travel

The following would be a bonus:

  • CEnv qualification
  • DCO experience
  • Experience in the nuclear sector
