  • Act as a key advisor to internal PMs, QSs, and Surveyors on sustainability aspects of construction and retrofit projects.

  • Shadow the Head of Energy & Carbon in client meetings and learn how to shape and scope deliverables into invoices.

  • Mentor junior team members and contribute to team development.

Ideally you'll have
  • Minimum of 3-5 years' experience in a similar consultancy or technical role.
  • Level 5 EPC Assessor certification (essential).

  • Proven experience with IES-VE or DesignBuilder.

  • Working knowledge of OneClickLCA or other LCA tools.

  • Understanding of BREEAM frameworks and requirements.

  • Strong client-facing ability and communication skills.

  • Organised, commercially aware and able to manage multiple projects.
