About Accu Acoustics
We are a three-person team working remotely and centred around Edinburgh. We usually meet in person for an office day once a week or once a fortnight.
We provide an excellent service to valued clients, while working on interesting and technically challenging projects.
We also work with a network of trusted co-professionals, allowing us to collaborate on projects that may otherwise be out of reach for a small consultancy. We are seeking a new team member who will help us grow our business and fit into our close-knit team.

- Undertake surveys, predictive modelling in CadnaA, data analysis and assessments for industrial and infrastructure projects, wind farms, BESS and solar developments, as well as a range of novel applications, in accordance with relevant guidance;
- Liaise with clients, using clear and accurate communication, to present results and maintain contact regarding future opportunities;
- Write and cost proposals;
- Be based in Scotland or the north of England, although for the right candidate based elsewhere in the UK we may consider the business case for alternative locations; and
- Operate safely and conscientiously, taking care not to put yourself or others at risk.
