The Opportunity

Stantec’s Environmental Team is working closely with our water clients to develop innovative, sustainable, and efficient solutions to their needs by applying genuinely new ways of working. We are seeking driven individuals who think differently and love to challenge conventional thinking to join us in a growing, collaborative team of like-minded consultants working to meet the unprecedented industry-wide challenges of efficiency and environmental sustainability.

We are currently seeking a Senior or Principal Environmental Advisor/Scientist to join our team, and we are open to considering applicants from all UK office locations. We will consider part-time work for the right candidate. We are excited by the significant and sustained ongoing growth, and this presents a great opportunity to join an ambitious team that will provide you with ample scope for career progression in the years to come.

You will be involved in supporting and assisting in the delivery of client and project environmental objectives and targets. Primarily, you will assist the EIA and environmental management teams by conducting environmental planning reports, EIA screening and scoping, as well as environmental management studies and audits. Alongside this, you will be responsible for advising our clients on environmental and sustainability issues.

About You

Ideally, you will hold a Bachelor's or Master’s degree in one of the following: Environmental Management, Environmental Impact Assessment, Environmental Science, or Environmental Planning that is accredited by the relevant professional body (CIWEM, IEMA, or RTPI). You should also be Chartered or seeking to apply in the next 6 months. You should be able to demonstrate capability as a client-focused Environmental Advisor, including experience in providing robust advice on routes to consent, critical environmental risks and opportunities, EIA, environmental management studies, and audits. You will also be experienced in analysing and presenting data using a geographic information system (GIS). General knowledge of ecology, flood risk, town planning, and water resources would be beneficial.

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.
