About the Role

Your next career step in Environmental Impact Assessment consulting.

Are you ready to take your career to the next level?  An exceptional role awaits within a thriving Planning consultancy, where your expertise in Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) will be highly valued and rewarded. This is a unique chance to join a dynamic and collaborative team, contributing to a diverse array of EIA projects focused on large scale energy and infrastructure development.

Why This Role Stands Out:

- Professional Growth: Engage in a variety of projects that will challenge and expand your skills. Your contributions will directly influence the success of high-profile initiatives.
- Collaborative Environment: Work alongside a team of dedicated professionals who are passionate about achieving high quality environmental outcomes.
- Flexibility: Choose to be based from one of several offices, work on a hybrid basis, and with opportunities for regular collaboration across disciplines. This role offers the flexibility to balance your professional and personal life.
- Leadership Opportunities: Play a pivotal role in shaping and growing the EIA team’s capability, while managing and co-ordinating projects from inception to completion.

Key Responsibilities:

- Prepare EIA Screening and Scoping Requests.
- Manage and compile Environmental Statements, including drafting introductory chapters and topic chapter templates.
- Co-ordinate and review specialist inputs, integrating them into comprehensive Environmental Statements.
- Serve as the direct point of contact between clients and the wider project team, ensuring seamless communication and project delivery.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

- A minimum of five years’ experience in an environmental or planning consultancy/public sector environment.
- A relevant degree or master’s in Environment and Development, Environmental Policy, or Planning.
- Practitioner member or above of ISEP.
- Proven experience in co-ordinating EIAs across a wide range of projects.
- Comfortable leading aspects of EIA co-ordination independently, without direct Director supervision.
- Experience with NSIP projects is advantageous but not essential.

This role is perfect for a proactive individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is eager to make a significant impact in the field of Environmental Impact Assessment. If you are passionate about environmental sustainability and ready to advance your career, this is the perfect role for you.
