Salary: £35,000 – £40,000 per annum (depending on experience)
Hours: Full-time, permanent
About Focus 360 Energy
Focus 360 Energy is a fast-growing, multidisciplinary consultancy providing full end-to-end compliance solutions for the built environment — from early planning through to handover and in-use operation. We specialise in SAP, SBEM, TM59/TM52 Overheating, and Energy Statement assessments for new-build and conversion projects
Our clients range from architects and developers to housing associations and commercial landlords, with projects spanning single dwellings, multi-unit developments, and large commercial estates.
We specialise in:
• Energy & Sustainability Assessments (SAP, SBEM, EPC, Energy Statements)
• Overheating (TM59 / TM52)
• Whole Life-Cycle Carbon & Circular Economy Statements
• Daylight & Sunlight Assessments
• Decarbonisation & Net Zero Strategies
• BREEAM, Planning, and Environmental Compliance
We’re now expanding our in-house sustainability team to support national growth and new major partnerships — including high-profile portfolios such as MOD, Camden Market, Trident Group (900+ commercial buildings), and St Austell Brewery.
The Role
As a Sustainability Specialist, you’ll play a key role in delivering our energy and sustainability services, supporting clients from early design through to post-construction. You’ll collaborate with assessors, architects, and developers, providing technical expertise across SAP, SBEM, and IES modelling.
This role also offers exposure to wider sustainability initiatives, including Whole Life-Cycle Carbon, BREEAM, and Decarbonisation strategies — with clear professional development pathways into these areas.
Key Responsibilities
• Carry out SAP and SBEM calculations and produce EPCs for domestic and non-domestic buildings
• Prepare Energy Statements for planning submissions (including London Plan compliance)
• Conduct Overheating Assessments in line with TM59 and TM52
• Support or lead on Whole Life-Cycle Carbon Assessments and Circular Economy Statements
• Undertake Daylight & Sunlight Modelling for residential and mixed-use developments
• Assist in producing Decarbonisation Reports and Net Zero Strategies for large-scale commercial estates
• Liaise with clients, local authorities, and design teams to provide clear technical advice
• Contribute to mentoring junior assessors and developing internal methodologies
About You
We’re looking for someone proactive, technically skilled, and commercially aware — someone who wants to grow within a business that values initiative and ambition. We’re particularly interested in candidates with strong technical modelling experience — rather than general sustainability or ESG backgrounds
Essential:
• Minimum 2 years’ experience producing SAP, SBEM or TM59 assessments for UK Building Regulation compliance
• Proficiency with IES-VE, Elmhurst, or equivalent SAP/SBEM/TM59 software
• Strong understanding of UK Building Regulations Part L and energy compliance frameworks
• Experience preparing Energy Statements for planning
• Degree in Environmental Design, Building Physics, or Sustainability Engineering
Desirable:
• Experience with BREEAM (Assessor or AP) or willingness to requalify (supported)
• Familiarity with OneClick LCA, TM54, or energy auditing (ESOS)
• Experience producing Whole Life-Cycle Carbon or Decarbonisation Reports
• Knowledge of daylight/sunlight or natural ventilation modelling
What We Offer
• Structured training programme with clear development milestones
• Fully remote working (with optional London meet-ups)
• Company-provided equipment (phone and laptop)
• Private medical insurance
• Professional memberships (IES, Elmhurst, CIBSE) covered
• 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
• Quarterly team days and industry events in London
• Genuine progression opportunities — including leading your own sustainability team as we scale
Why Join Us
At Focus 360 Energy, you’re not just a number — you’re part of an ambitious, growing business redefining compliance and sustainability in the UK.
* You’ll gain exposure to a diverse portfolio — from single dwellings to complex commercial estates — and work alongside leading developers, architects, and engineers who share your passion for creating low-carbon, compliant, and future-ready buildings.
