Job Specification

Tomson Consulting works on a wide range of projects including (though not limited to);
- Energy management of buildings, industrial processes, transport,
- Net Zero and Carbon neutrality planning and implementation (SBTi, PAS2060),
- Building and estate decarbonisation with a specialism of old, listed, and historic buildings,
- Energy Savings Opportunities Scheme,

- Low-carbon heat network feasibility and DPD
- Renewable energy feasibility studies,
- Farming for carbon sequestration, habitat improvement and food production.

We work with industry, landowners and local authorities, manufacturing companies, farmers, and food and drink companies. We help our clients measure and manage carbon, and work with biodiversity specialists to ensure solutions provide the best opportunities for regeneration of habitat and wildlife. We work closely with our sister company District Eating Ltd, whose aim is to develop sustainable low carbon horticulture using waste heat and CO. On occasion the two businesses work together to develop holistic circular economy solutions that span sectors, industries, and demographics. Consultants working with Tomson Consulting will occasionally get the chance to work on District Eating projects. We are also currently working on a project that will see community buy-out of UK farmland for conversion to wildlife friendly, regenerative food production.

We are looking for a consultant with several years' experience who has a flexible, practical, and ‘can-do’ attitude and excellent organisational, people and communication skills.

We need you to be extremely organised and efficient, able to speak and write confidently, and to have excellent written and verbal communication skills at all levels. We are looking for someone who can work well in a team, supporting graduates and directors in the team with project development and reporting, as well as marketing activities such as writing of case studies, and educational blogs.

- Minimum of 24 months experience in a relevant consultancy role,
- A first-class degree grounded in sustainability,
- Experience in energy and carbon auditing,
- Experience of business planning, cost benefit analysis principles,
- An understanding and interest in sustainable resource use and/or renewable energy technology

- Excellent communication skills,
- Strong organisational skills,
- Emotional maturity,
- Willingness to learn and persevere,
- An open mind and an ability to solve problems,
- Ability to develop and maintain client and colleague relationships,
- Ability to work independently.
