Principal Sustainability Engineer | Hampshire | Permanent | up to £70,000
If you’re the an engineer who sees sustainability benefiting internal systems - not just a scoreboard of emissions - this one’s worth a look.
PT Renewables is partnered with a global manufacturer in the medical devices world - think highly regulated, engineering-led, quality-first.
Operating in 100+ countries, sustainability isn’t a side topic here, it’s a valuable part of operations, backed by investment, deadlines, and leadership attention.
This role sits at the intersection of science, sustainability and technical innovation, helping drive decarbonisation, circular thinking, eco-design, and operational impact reduction across a global footprint.
The Role
You’ll be the go-to technical expert on sustainability engineering and design.
You'll lead on research, feasibility and delivery of changes that cut carbon, reduce waste, rethink materials and improve environmental performance - all while still hitting cost, quality and compliance requirements.
In practice, that means:
* Leading the global decarbonisation programme
* Acting as the SME on waste, plastics, water, and eco-design
* Driving and validating Life Cycle Assessments and GHG reporting
* Translating global standards, regulations and tech trends into actionable programmes
* Running technical research, design changes, ECO processes and risk management
* Developing policies, training, and internal capability around sustainable product & process engineering
* Influencing decision-makers across engineering, ops, quality, procurement and supply chain
About You
This suits someone from both a consultancy or in-house background, but someone who enjoys complexity.
Someone who can zoom from GHG methodologies, manufacturing processes, regulatory compliance, business cases, without dropping the thread.
We’re looking for:
* Solid experience implementing LCAs, decarb plans or major sustainability initiatives in a manufacturing or regulated environment
* Strong analytical and computational capability
* A credible engineering or scientific background with sustainability
Package
* Base salary up to £70,000
* Generous bonus opportunities
* 25 days holiday + enhanced pension
* Wellness support & benefits
* Training & career development
* A genuinely inclusive culture that values doing things properly (not greenwashing)
If this sounds like you, and you want to join a global business who improve people's lives daily, apply now, we'd love to hear from you.
