3 weeks ago


Shrewsbury, United Kingdom Stantec Full time

**Redefine your personal best**

Have you ever thought about joining a multidisciplinary team where you get to work in a diverse, welcoming, and fun environment, on amazing projects? Then look no further than Stantec. As part of continued and ambitious UK growth, Stantec has identified an opportunity to grow its Environmental Permitting and Regulatory Compliance team who works from the Exeter, Shrewsbury, and Warrington offices.

The role will be within or closely aligned to Stantec’s Environmental Permitting and Regulatory Compliance team but also delivering work on projects for clients across our Environmental Consulting Community of Practice which brings together our 300-strong team of Environmental Consulting staff in the UK.

Environmental Permitting (EP) (and its equivalents in devolved UK nations) has an essential role to play in ensuring a wide range of activities are undertaken in compliance with prevailing environmental legislation and in a manner which is protective of the environment.

Operations falling under the EPR regime include activities across multiple sectors including waste, industry, water, energy, minerals and construction and requires a broad environmental understanding with inputs from technical specialists where required.

Environmental Permitting and regulatory compliance projects are likely to be diverse and will include associated regulatory environments and regimes (e.g. Industrial Emissions Directive (IED); Medium Combustion Plant Directive (MCPD); Water Framework Directive (WFD); and Environmental Protection Act (EPA) Part 2A, to name just a few.). The role will also likely extend to wider waste, environmental and compliance advisory support to projects through planning, EIA and ongoing client operations.

**About You**

We would anticipate that you will have achieved an Honours Degree (2:1) in Environmental/Earth Science or broader Environmental Management. You may currently work in environmental or engineering consultancy, directly for waste or industry operators, for the UK environmental regulator(s) (e.g. Environment Agency, NRW, SEPA or NIEA) or be a recent or future graduate keen to kick start your career.

You should be willing to learn and be a good communicator and support clients and projects across our UK teams. Experience in managing client and regulator relationships would be beneficial.

Travel will be required between Stantec’s UK offices but also to attend client meetings, site visits and industry events (workshops, conferences, etc.) where these cannot be otherwise attended via remote means. Some overnight stays may be required as part of the role.
