Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Stantec Full time
About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Environmental Consultant to join our team in the UK. As a key member of our Environmental Permitting and Regulatory Compliance team, you will play a crucial role in providing expert advice and services to clients across various sectors.

Your primary responsibility will be to guide clients through the consenting process under the Environmental Permitting Regulations (EPR) regime in England and Wales, as well as equivalent regimes in Scotland and Northern Ireland. This will involve initial feasibility and due diligence, consenting strategy/coordination, and stakeholder liaison, as well as extensive operational compliance and closure support.

You will work closely with client teams, investors, regulators, and legal experts to deliver bespoke and expert advice. Your expertise will be invaluable in helping clients navigate complex regulatory approaches and interlinked regimes.

In addition to your technical expertise, you will also be responsible for undertaking significant work associated with preventing the generation of, using, or managing wastes (soils/aggregates) from and in construction in support of major infrastructure, quarry restoration, and development sectors.

We are proud to have written major new industry guidance in this respect (CIRIA C809) and remain at the forefront of industry working groups associated with the wider soil resource and regulatory interlinkages with other sectors.

About You

To be successful in this role, you will have achieved an Honours Degree in Environmental/Earth Science or broader Environmental Management. You may currently work in environmental or engineering consultancy, directly for industry operators, or for the UK environmental regulator(s). The role will also extend to wider environmental management and compliance advisory support to projects through planning, EIA, and ongoing client operations.

You should be willing to learn, be a good communicator, and able to work in office-based and remote teams. Travel will be required between Stantec's UK offices, as well as to attend client meetings, site visits, and industry events.
