- Undertaking bespoke Energy Conservation Measures (ECM) modelling using nationally recognised methods that can be measured and verified under Energy Frameworks such as RE:Fit or NDEE
- Preparing summaries detailing modelling outputs for use in RIBA Stage 2 & 3 design reports.
- Appraising and interpretating client requirements including Tender documentation
- Having an awareness of cost implications within design
- Liaising with Vital Energi’s in-house Bid Team, Solar PV designers and Proposals Engineers to influence designs and produce tender information.
- Complying with CDM requirements and our in-house design processes

**Skills/Experience**
- Educated to a Degree level in a sustainability, engineering or science discipline
- Demonstrable experience in a design/design build environment
