**Job Description**:
Due to exceptional growth in demand for our services we are currently recruiting for enthusiastic individuals with a track record of delivering sustainability projects and programmes join our Climate Change, Sustainability and Resilience (CCSR) practice.

Our CCSR practice has a well-deserved reputation with infrastructure owners and operators, FTSE100 and Fortune500 clients, governments, financial institutions, for Net Zero Resilient and ESG technical advisory services. We produce carbon assessments and management plans, robust climate assessments, carbon footprints and reduction plans as well as supporting climate change risk assessment and resilience and adaptation planning. We also help clients with peer benchmarking, risk assessment, strategy development, and reporting to support their ESG programmes. Our work provides clients with greater confidence in decision making, business planning and operation of major projects, individual assets, multinational portfolios, and cities. The practice works across a wide range of sectors including highways, rail, aviation, power, water utilities and urban regeneration, industrials, manufacturing, FMCG, chems/pharmas, and financial services.

It is an exciting time for AECOM. We launched our global Sustainable Legacies strategy last year and have seen a significant increase in demand in this area from our clients and the wider business; and the interest is only growing. These advertised roles are to support this growth and be part of our journey as we transition to New Zero alongside our clients. It you are passionate about helping organisations transition to a resilient Net Zero future and integrate ESG into their decision making, then get in touch for your next career move.

**Role**

Depending on your experience and aspirations a typical week could involve:

- Conducting and delivering technical work across a range of ESG related projects for major infrastructure owners and operators.
- Managing tasks and projects covering technical, quality and financial management;
- Supporting and mentoring team members to build their capacity and expertise;
- Liaising and collaborating with colleagues, clients and their advisors to deliver work on time, budget and achieving technical excellence;
- Multitasking: working across several projects and proposals at one time;
- Preparing costed proposals and other business development materials (e.g. for webinars, flyers, case studies, etc.);
- Building positive long-term client relationships;
- Building internal networks to promote CCSR services within AECOM; and
- Supporting the CCSR practice leadership to identify and secure new internal and external opportunities.
