The sustainability team is keen to recruit an experienced BREEAM Assessor to join either the Leeds or Nottingham office. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering BREEAM assessments across a variety of projects, working with clients, design teams, and other stakeholders to ensure compliance with environmental performance standards. You’ll play a key role in driving sustainability goals from early-stage design through to project completion.

Applications are invited from licensed and registered BREEAM Assessors, or those who have gained considerable experience working alongside a licenced professional, looking to find their own platform to showcase their talents develop and gain their own personal accreditations. A strong understanding of environmental design, building performance and sustainability principles is absolutely essential, as are the softer interpersonal skills to provide a friendly and flexible client facing service that promotes understanding, inspires confidence and encourages clear communication.
