  • Relevant degree or master's in environmental science or equivalent.
  • Recent consultancy experience in a similar Associate/Associate Director role.
  • Expertise in energy, infrastructure, and EIA planning.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of the current UK planning system.
  • Experience with post-submission and determination within the DCO process.
  • Strong client management and presentation skills at senior levels.
  • Excellent project management and report writing skills.
  • Deep understanding of planning legislation across England and Wales.


Also offered is an exceptional benefits package which includes;

  • Growth bonus, enhanced pension, and death in service cover
  • Private medical insurance and BUPA Cash Plan
  • Hybrid work, extra annual leave, and loyalty leave (up to 5 days)
