Following recent significant contract wins in the Built Environment sector, SLR has an opportunity for an experienced professional to join us as a Senior EIA Consultant in either our London or Southampton office.

The role
This is an exciting opportunity for a technically proficient and commercially-minded EIA specialist with experience in Built Environment projects, such as estate regenerations, urban extensions, strategic land developments, mixed-use town centre schemes, and industrial and logistics schemes. Your responsibilities will include:

• Assisting in the preparation of fee proposals;
• Authoring screening requests, scoping requests, Environmental Statements, ES Addenda and ES Reviews;
• Acting as the day-to-day contact with clients and technical consultant teams;
• Maintaining strong relationships with existing clients in the Built Environment sector;
• Representing SLR at industry conferences and events.

You will report to and work closely with our London EIA Lead, and will be part of the wider EIA - South team, currently operating out of London, Southampton, Bristol, Nottingham and Worcester.

As part of our national planning and ESIA team, you will have the opportunity to work with and learn from our team of highly experienced professionals, with opportunities to work occasionally within other sectors (e.g. renewables).

About us
SLR are global leaders in Sustainability Solutions, helping our clients achieve their sustainability goals. We are a consultancy with 4000+ employees across 6 regions in over 125 countries. Our 'one team' culture is at the heart of our business, providing a collaborative and supportive environment for professional development. Along with competitive salaries, our staff enjoy a comprehensive benefits package with a
company pension plus excellent healthcare offering, travel and life insurance and a structured career framework with regular reviews offering outstanding opportunities for progression. Alongside 25 day's annual leave, with additional flexible bank holidays, we offer flexible, agile and hybrid working which enables staff to tailor hours worked around core hours, with family friendly policies help balance the needs of professional and home life.

About you
You'll have experience in successfully managing and coordinating EIAs for complex urban development projects. Your strong communication skills, coupled with your technical knowledge, will mean you can successfully engage and build trust with senior colleagues, clients and other stakeholders.

Given your level of experience, you are likely to be at least a practitioner member of IEMA (or other relevant professional body) and be working towards full membership and/or chartership.

We welcome applications from all individuals, regardless of their background, including those from groups that are currently under-represented at SLR, such as people identifying as 2SLGBTQI+, Indigenous peoples, ethnic minority groups, women, and people with visible or invisible disabilities, including those who are neurodivergent.
