An established and growing building services and sustainability consultancy is looking to appoint a Sustainability Consultant with a strong focus on BREEAM delivery to join its Birmingham office.
This opportunity would suit someone confident managing BREEAM projects independently, who is looking to broaden their exposure across energy modelling, life cycle assessment, and wider sustainability advisory services.

ESG-related advisory work (as services expand)
This is an ideal position for someone who wants more ownership and visibility within a growing sustainability team.
Key Responsibilities
Deliver BREEAM assessments from feasibility through to certification
Interpret BREEAM criteria and advise design teams accordingly
Coordinate and review evidence submissions
Lead client and design team workshops
Manage BRE submissions and certification process
Support integration of wider sustainability strategies into projects
What We're Looking For
3-6+ years' experience in BREEAM consultancy
Strong understanding of BREEAM processes and the assessment lifecycle
Ability to manage projects independently
Confident communicator, comfortable leading workshops
Interest in expanding into broader sustainability disciplines
What's on Offer
£35,000 - £50,000 depending on experience
Hybrid working (3/2 split, flexible)
Clear pathway for progression as sustainability services grow
Exposure to diverse sectors including commercial, residential, healthcare and education
If you're an experienced BREEAM professional looking for a step up in responsibility, salary, and scope - this could be the right move.
