The Role

If you’re at your best out on site, talking to engineers, challenging decisions, spotting risks before they become problems and rolling up your sleeves to put things right, this could be the role for you.

Through business growth, we’re looking for a hands‑on and experienced field‑based Environmental Advisor to help us deliver environmental excellence across our civil engineering projects. This is not a desk‑based sustainability strategy role. It’s about being present, visible and influential where it really matters - out on site.

You’ll be supporting projects through design, construction and reinstatement, ensuring we stay compliant, minimise impact and continuously improve how we work.

Here are some of things you'll be involved with...

• Out on site undertaking environmental assessments and producing practical, workable environmental management plans.
• Working directly with operational teams to ensure works meet legal and regulatory requirements.
• Carrying out inspections and audits in line with ISO , permits and environmental legislation — identifying issues early and driving corrective action.
• Supporting incident management and ensuring lessons are learned, shared and embedded.
• Monitoring environmental performance and translating data into meaningful actions.
• Engaging confidently with colleagues, clients and regulators — providing clear, pragmatic advice.
• Championing best practice and encouraging smarter, more environmentally responsible ways of working.

This role is about being visible, approachable and proactive and not reactive!

We’d love to hear from you if you can demonstrate...

Previous experience in an environmental role within the civil engineering, construction or utilities sectors, together with a good understanding of environmental legislation and how it applies to operational projects. You'll be confident managing environmental risks, preparing environmental plans and reports, and using environmental data to identify opportunities for practical improvements.

You will be comfortable working closely with operational teams, providing advice and guidance while having the confidence to challenge where necessary to ensure environmental standards are maintained. Most importantly, you'll have a genuine passion for protecting and enhancing the environment through practical, on‑site delivery rather than theory alone.

A relevant environmental qualification or membership, such as IEMA, CIWEM, IES or CIWM, together with a degree in an environmental discipline, would be desirable.

As this is a predominantly field‑based role, a full UK driving licence is essential.

Who this role is ideal for...

• Someone with relevant field based experience in an environmental role.
• Someone who enjoys being out on site and working closely with operational teams.
• Someone who likes solving real‑world problems in real time.
• Someone who prefers practical delivery over corporate sustainability strategy.

If you’re looking for a purely office‑based sustainability or policy role, this isn’t the right fit, but if you want to make a tangible difference on live projects and see the impact of your advice every day, we’d love to hear from you.
