Joining Arup
Arup’s purpose, shared values, and collaborative approach have set us apart for over 75 years, guiding how we shape a better world.
Arup is an independent firm of designers, planners, engineers, consultants, and technical specialists offering a broad range of professional services. Through our work, we make a positive difference in the world.
Decarbonization can apply to a nation, a region, a city, a district, an organization, an infrastructure asset, a building, or a product. We work with our clients to help them understand and minimize their impacts by preparing baselines and net zero strategies and targets, developing whole life cycle reduction pathways, and supporting implementation. This can involve devising new policies, innovative business models, introducing new technology, training, and cultural programs to accelerate and manage the complexity presented by the transition.
Shaped by our engineering heritage and informed by our wide range of complementary technical skills, we offer rigorous environmental assessments and management practices to inform and communicate a clear understanding of environmental issues and opportunities.

The Opportunity
Our UK Sustainability and Climate Services Group is seeking a Senior Consultant in carbon management and assessment for various projects, including developing Net Zero strategies and action plans, sustainability supply chain management, or impact assessments for major infrastructure and development projects. We are looking for someone who shares our passion for shaping a better world and can help develop and deliver our carbon and climate change services with technical expertise.

At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective where individuality is encouraged. Our strength lies in respecting, sharing, and connecting diverse experiences, perspectives, and ideas.
You will have the opportunity to do socially meaningful work that benefits Arup, your career, our members, and the communities we serve.
