Our HSR and Environment divisions are recognised experts in their respective fields who work for a diverse range of end-clients, as well as contributing into wider RPS and Tetra Tech integrated service propositions.

Our BD team is well established and helps drive the growth in our business. As a result of our BD success and continuing company growth, we are looking for a Marketing Assistant to join our team.

• Reports highlighting key marketing, bids, wins, pipeline opportunities and look ahead.
• Proactively build internal working relationships within other Consulting UK and ROI divisions and wider company as needed.
