Are you ready to shape the future of our environment? At Bureau Veritas, we're on the lookout for passionate and ambitious recent graduates to join our dynamic Air Quality Consultancy team. This is your chance to launch a fulfilling and impactful career while working on high-profile projects that truly make a difference.

About The Role

As a Graduate Consultant, you’ll be immersed in diverse and exciting projects that combine desk-based work and hands-on field activities. One day, you might assist in developing an innovative web-based air quality dashboard for a local authority, and the next, you could be carrying out an odour survey on a poultry farm or calculating emissions from diesel backup generators.

You'll also collaborate with senior colleagues, attend client meetings, and help develop new technical guidance and tools. Variety is at the heart of this role, ensuring every day is both rewarding and intellectually stimulating.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

• Assisting with air quality modelling, monitoring, and assessments.
• Conducting research and delivering sustainability reports.
• Supporting client interactions and building professional relationships.
• Deploying monitoring equipment on-site and analysing data back in the office.
• Staying updated on the latest sustainability trends.
• Providing administrative support and fostering a safety-conscious and environmentally friendly culture.

Quick Learners: Some knowledge of air quality modelling, monitoring, or assessment would be advantageous.

Adaptability: From muddy fields to data analysis, you thrive in diverse settings.
