RSK is seeking an experienced Environmental Manager to support major development and infrastructure projects across the Midlands. This is an excellent opportunity for an environmental professional with strong post-planning and construction-phase experience who enjoys working closely with project teams to deliver practical environmental solutions on live sites.
We would like to hear from applicants from the Midlands Region (Birmingham, Staffordshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Chesterfield and surrounding areas)
We're looking for someone who understands how planning conditions, environmental commitments, and regulatory requirements translate into real-world construction activities. You'll play a key role in ensuring projects remain compliant while supporting successful delivery on site.
The Role
Working alongside project managers, contractors, planners, and technical specialists, you will provide environmental leadership across a range of development and construction projects.
Key Responsibilities Include
- Managing environmental compliance throughout the construction phase of projects.
- Ensuring planning conditions, environmental management plans, permits, and consent requirements are effectively implemented on site.
- Providing practical environmental advice to project teams and contractors.
- Monitoring environmental performance and identifying opportunities for continual improvement.
- Leading environmental audits, inspections, and compliance reviews.
- Investigating environmental incidents and supporting the implementation of corrective actions.
- Liaising with regulatory bodies, clients, contractors, and internal technical specialists.
- Promoting a positive culture of environmental responsibility and best practice across projects.
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.
