Glasgow, United Kingdom Hydrock Full time

An exciting opportunity has emerged for a Principal/ Associate Acoustics Consultant to join our expanding Northern UK Acoustics team, working out of either our Glasgow or Edinburgh offices. We have an established team of acousticians and air quality consultants in the North (based in Leeds, Manchester, and Newcastle) and following the success of our building services team in Scotland are looking to expand our acoustics offering. This is an exciting opportunity to build your own team and develop a service.

The Acoustics & Air Quality Division is a human centric team of people from a variety of backgrounds within acoustics, working to deliver a standout approach to the complexities of acoustics engineering. The team aspire to provide premium acoustics engineering across all projects, whilst maintaining approachable, adaptable and accountable relationships with our clients and colleagues.

Project Examples:

We have a diverse portfolio of work across the region, typically working alongside our building services colleagues (MEP, C&S, Fire and Sustainability) as part of a multi-disciplinary team. These include:

  • Event Centres, performance spaces and music venues.
  • Hotels, student accommodation and residential schemes.
  • Schools, including for Special Education Needs (SEN).
  • Universities in Manchester, Newcastle, Keele, and Blackpool.
  • Prisons and Justice.
  • Offices and Commercial Spaces.
  • Entertainment and Leisure Facilities.
  • Research projects in Healthcare and Justice.
Your role will include:

Whilst there is no such thing as a 'normal week' within our acoustics team, you can expect to:
  • Collaborate with the Regional Director and other regional discipline leads in strategic work winning activities and on fostering a great working environment in the region.
  • Be responsible for the management and delivery of projects within the region.
  • Collaborate with our UK wide acoustics team on pushing our technical excellence, innovative work streams and team culture.
  • Participate in our knowledge sharing forums, leading technical CPD sessions to the wider team.
  • Building and leading your own team in the region.
  • Be an ambassador for Acoustics both inside and outside the business.
What are we looking for?
  • Strong experience working in acoustics consultancy, with a demonstrable track record both in environmental acoustics and building acoustics design. Our team come from a range of engineering and scientific backgrounds, with a variety of qualifications.
  • Professionals who can confidently build and maintain relationships with colleagues, key stakeholders and clients.
  • Someone who enjoys mentoring junior members of the team and has a passion for acoustics.
  • An existing base of local client contacts would be advantageous but is not essential.
What We Offer:
  • Inspiring and supportive colleagues.
  • Recognition for hard work and career progression.
  • Opportunities to develop both technical and soft skills.
  • Competitive starting salary.
  • Community involvement through "Stantec in the Community" initiatives.
  • Flexible benefits, including a green car leasing scheme.
