This is a high-impact position with genuine influence over project delivery, environmental performance, and long-term sustainability strategy. What you'll be responsible for: * Shaping environmental and sustainability performance across major construction projects, embedding best practice from design through delivery. * Driving carbon, materials, and environmental management strategies that influence real-world project outcomes. * Partnering with site teams, engineers, and leadership to turn sustainability commitments into practical, deliverable actions. * Engaging with clients, regulators, and stakeholders to ensure compliance while enhancing project reputation and performance. * Using data, audits, and reporting to identify risks, drive improvement, and showcase environmental and sustainability impact. What we're ideally looking for: * A construction-experienced environmental or sustainability professional who thrives in complex, fast-paced project environments. * Someone confident influencing site teams and senior stakeholders, translating technical requirements into actionable solutions. * A strong understanding of UK environmental legislation, carbon management, and sustainability frameworks (e.g., PAS 2080, ISO 14001, BREEAM). * Experience embedding environmental and sustainability processes across live construction projects, not just at policy level. * A proactive, collaborative mindset with the drive to shape how major infrastructure projects are delivered more sustainably.
