About the Role

As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for leading the development and integration of our environmental and energy management system, while meeting our client and stakeholder's needs.

Key Responsibilities
  • Promote the environmental initiatives aligned with our sustainability strategy, such as carbon reduction, waste minimisation and the protection and enhancement of nature.
  • Build trusting collaborative relationships with project delivery teams, clients and stakeholders, and fully understand the client context and deliver against their needs.
  • Implement the LOR Energy and Environmental Management System.
  • Manage the environmental risks, deliverables and requirements, involving our design team and delivery teams by appropriately identifying risk mitigation and continual review of control measures in place.
  • Develop and deliver environmental training.

  • Provide technical advice to project design and delivery teams to identify and mitigate environmental risks and ensure most suitable practices are adopted.

Experience working on large infrastructure projects is essential, as is a positive approach to the challenges of change, helping others to become receptive and responsive to change. A deep understanding of environmental legislation and requirements, the requirements of ISO14001 and ISO50001 and Management Systems is also required.
