The Role

Youll be involved in a varied portfolio of work across the North East, including brownfield development, contaminated land, site investigation and remediation projects.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

• Managing geoenvironmental projects from initial proposal through to completion
• Preparing and reviewing Phase 1 and Phase 2 assessments
• Producing contaminated land risk assessments and conceptual site models

• Liaising with regulators and local authorities
• Supporting and mentoring junior members of the team
• Building and maintaining client relationships
• Identifying opportunities for repeat business and supporting the wider team with business development

There is also scope to get involved in more complex contaminated land and remediation projects, particularly across the Teesside and wider North East market, where historic industrial activity has created a range of interesting ground and environmental challenges.

About You

The Opportunity

This is a good opportunity to join a specialist consultancy where you can have a genuine influence on the continued development of the business.

Youll have the autonomy to manage your own projects and client relationships, while still having the support of an experienced technical team around you.

The role offers a good balance between technical delivery, project management, client contact and business development, rather than being purely report:based.

• Senior position within a growing consultancy
• Varied contaminated land and geoenvironmental projects
• Strong exposure to brownfield and industrial sites
