As one of the world's largest networks of audit, tax and consulting firms, RSM delivers big ideas and premium service to help middle-market businesses thrive. We are a fast-growing firm with big ambitions -- we have a clear goal to become the premium adviser to the middle market, globally. This vision touches everything we do, motivating and inspiring us to become better every day. If you are looking for a firm where you can build a future and make an impact, then RSM is the place for you.

Overall Job Purpose 

Are you an established ESG Consultant ready for your next challenge and wanting to make a difference?

RSM is seeing significant demand for its ESG consultancy services from across a wide range of the market.  The firm has already invested significantly in its ESG consultancy team and we are now seek to further enhance the team.

As part of our drive to become the first-choice supplier to the middle market, RSM wants to deepen our ESG services to meet demand and to fulfil larger projects in this space.  This Senior Consultant role will play a key role in delivering ESG consulting engagements and in addition will bring the business and commercial skills required for these projects to be successful.  The opportunity to contribute both to winning work and service development will also be part of the role.

Working as part of a diverse team and closely with clients, it’s critical that you can establish trust and credibility and can quickly build effective relationships.

You’ll need to be an active listener and proactive in taking action. You will already have been involved in ESG projects that have delivered value to the organisations you’ve worked with and have a good grounding in the approaches and methodology behind them. If you haven’t yet focused on a specific industry or sector, you will at very least have a good understanding of current business and economic issues and trends.

As a Senior Consultant, your focus will be on excellent client delivery, so you will need strong analytical skills and be an exceptional communicator, whatever the medium. You will also become involved in business development and practice management activities. This will include networking across the firm, helping to shape targeting campaigns and meeting with prospective clients, producing case studies, and developing methodologies.

In return, you will enjoy the benefits of being part of an agile, dynamic, and entrepreneurial team within a leading business advisory practice, with over 4,000 people in the UK and which is part of a network which operates in around 120 countries globally.

    • Assurance of non-financial or ESG data to the ISAE 3000/3410 standards.

  • The ability to demonstrate and operate in line with RSM’s core values. These are excellence, teamwork, integrity, respect, and stewardship.
