Our Values

This role is highly important in ensuring the business continues to thrive and grow, always with a view to our passionate aspiration of supporting the world's transition to net zero.

As with any role in the business, there will be a requirement for adaptability and flexibility, with an emphasis on our core values:

  • Entrepreneurial & innovative
  • Client focused, developing longterm relationships
  • A people business
  • Technically excellent in our service offerings, with a focus on adding value
  • A fun place to work
We believe in Being Confident, Being Curious and Taking Ownership, and we encourage these behaviours across our entire organisation. If this sounds like your kind of workplace, we hope you'll consider joining us.

Background to the opportunity

As part of our ongoing development, we are now seeking to complement our existing Geology, Peat & Hydrology team with an experienced professional.

Working with our existing team of environmental consultants, you will support, manage, and deliver committed projects and contribute to the development of ITPEnergised's related offering, commensurate to your grade and experience.

This is a great opportunity to support the growth of an exciting consulting business working alongside a highly experienced team.


ITPEnergised is a client-focused consultancy, providing project management, feasibility assessment and environmental and energy services to a range of sectors, including onshore and offshore renewables, urban development and infrastructure, industrial & manufacturing, and oil & gas (energy transition).


The Geology, Peat & Hydrology service line sits within the wider Environmental Planning Team which also covers Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Ecology.

We are primarily looking for people to join our team at Senior Consultant level.

Duties and responsibilities
Depending on your experience and skill set, your roles and areas of focus would entail:

  • Preparation of EIA report chapters (Geology, Peat, Hydrology and Hydrogeology) and technical appendices (Peat Landslide Hazard and Risk Assessment, Peat Management Plans, Borrow Pit Resource Appraisals, Carbon Balance Assessments (wind farm)) across a range of developments.
  • Preparation of technical reports including geotechnical/geoenvironmental appraisals, coal mining risk assessments and peatland restoration plans.
  • Assisting in the preparation of hydrological/hydrogeological assessments (Private Water Supply Risk Assessment, Groundwater Dependent Terrestrial Ecosystem Risk Assessment, Flood Risk Assessment, Water Quality Monitoring).
  • Managing and undertaking peat depth and condition surveys on a range of development sites (predominately onshore wind farms and transmission routes).
  • Developing health & safety plans to cover field work tasks.
  • Postconsent planning discharge conditions and construction phase support relating to geology/peat;
  • Graphics preparation and analysis of geospatial data (mainly using GIS).
  • Preparation of scopes of work and costs for input to fee proposals.
  • Project management, including to budgets and deadlines.
  • As the business requires, assist in delivery of other related environmental assessments, commensurate with experience and technical understanding.
  • Contribution to business development appropriate to your grade and experience, including initiating and participating in client meetings, networking events, conferences, and seminars.
  • Management/mentoring of junior colleagues dependent on your grade and experience.
We offer flexible working options to suit domestic arrangements. Your role will ordinarily require occasional travel to our other office locations, clients' offices and sites.

This may include staying away from home during periods of fieldwork around the UK (generally ranging from 1 day to up to 1 week).

Person Specification

  • BSc degree level qualification or equivalent in geology, earth science, hydrology or similar.
  • Relevant postgraduate qualification would be advantageous, and membership of a relevant institution (Geological Society, CIWEM or similar) working towards chartership.
  • Experience managing and undertaking field surveys and assessments.
  • Experience undertaking peat stability and peat management assessments.
  • Good knowledge and understanding of
