What you'll bring to the team
At Merlin, we bring joy, create connections and make memories for millions of guests every year across our world-famous attractions. Behind the scenes, we are also working hard to make sure those memories are created in a more sustainable way.
That is where you come in.
We are looking for a Carbon & Environmental Compliance Manager to help drive the accuracy, governance and impact of Merlin’s environmental reporting across our global estate.
Working closely with teams across Sustainability, Finance, Procurement, Energy and Operations, you will take ownership of our Scope 1 and 2 carbon reporting, environmental compliance and performance analytics. You will ensure our environmental data is accurate, auditable and meaningful, helping the business make informed decisions that support our sustainability ambitions.
This role combines carbon accounting, environmental compliance and data analysis. One day you might be reviewing greenhouse gas emissions data from attractions across the world, the next you could be identifying opportunities to reduce energy consumption, improve environmental performance or strengthen compliance processes.
What you will be doing
- Leading Merlin's annual Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas reporting across 100+ locations
- Maintaining carbon accounting methodologies in line with the GHG Protocol and relevant regulations
- Coordinating the collection, validation and assurance of environmental data
- Managing packaging compliance and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) reporting
- Producing environmental dashboards, reports and performance insights for senior stakeholders
- Supporting internal audits, external assurance processes and regulatory reporting
- Delivering environmental reporting training and guidance to teams across the business
- Monitoring environmental legislation and assessing potential business impacts
- Supporting wider ESG and sustainability reporting and initiatives
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
