This is a fantastic opportunity for an environmental professional with around 1 year’s experience who wants to take the next step in their career and gain hands-on exposure to a diverse portfolio of high-profile projects - from HS2 and major city-centre developments to highways, drainage, sewage treatment works and a major manufacturing extension.
You’ll be out on site, working closely with project teams and playing a key role in ensuring environmental and sustainability standards are maintained across a varied and exciting project portfolio.
What you'll be doing:
- Make an impact on site – Provide hands-on environmental support, carrying out inspections and helping project teams stay compliant and environmentally focused.
- Work on major projects – Get involved across Birmingham, Coventry, Derby and Leicester, with exposure to high-profile infrastructure and construction schemes.
- Own the data – Collate, manage and interpret environmental and sustainability data to support effective project reporting and decision-making.
- Be the eyes on the ground – Conduct site inspections, identify environmental risks and help drive practical solutions across active construction environments.
- Build valuable experience – Work alongside experienced project and environmental professionals, developing your knowledge across multiple sectors and project types.
