About the Opportunity We're on the lookout for an enthusiastic ESG & Sustainability Advisor to join our award-winning team, supporting key environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives across the Dandara Group. Reporting to our Sustainability Manager and working closely with the Head of ESG, you'll play a vital role in helping us drive forward our sustainability agenda—supporting data collection, analysis, reporting, and stakeholder engagement across both our Housebuilding and Build to Rent divisions. This is a 12-month maternity cover with real potential to develop into a longer-term opportunity for the right candidate.
