Joining Arup

Arup's purpose, shared values and collaborative approach has set us apart for over 80 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

Watch this short clip to discover how Arup are shaping a better world and how you could be a part of it!

The Opportunities

Our Energy Advisory team in the Midlands, Wales and West are recruiting Senior Energy Advisory Consultants / Senior Project Managers to join us! Our team combines advisory and project delivery, and these roles span both. We are a multidisciplinary group of consultants and project managers, advising developers, utilities, network operators, government bodies and investors across the project lifecycle. We work with the organisations shaping the UK energy system: network owners and system operators including National Grid and NESO; government and public bodies such as DESNZ, Great British Energy and The Crown Estate; offshore wind developers including Cerulean Winds and Copenhagen Offshore Partners; and major generators including Uniper, SSE and RWE.

As a senior member of the team, you will lead the delivery of energy projects and programmes and act as a trusted adviser to our clients. You will be accountable for the quality, commercial performance and client experience of your work, and you will play a key part in developing our team and growing our business.

We are looking for individuals who bring sound judgement, confidence with clients and the curiosity to find better ways of working.

At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective – in which we encourage individuality to thrive. Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas. You will have the opportunity do socially useful work that has meaning – to Arup, to your career, to our members and to the clients and communities we serve.

Are these roles right for you?

We are particularly interested in people with established experience in one or more of the following areas:

• Onshore electricity transmission and distribution and Onshore renewable generation and energy storage,
• Offshore interconnectors and HVDC transmission systems and Offshore wind.
• Hydrogen, low-carbon fuels and industrial decarbonisation.
• Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS).
• Urban and low-carbon heat and nuclear new build and decommissioning.

Your role may include:

• Leading projects end to end, or major workstreams on larger programmes and frameworks, and being accountable for scope, programme, fee, quality and risk. This includes leading the delivery of major capital projects and programmes, from early feasibility and consenting through to procurement, construction and handover.
• Owning client relationships, understanding their wider priorities and identifying where Arup can help further. Shaping client strategy and decision-making through option appraisals, recommendations and business case development.
• Managing complex stakeholder interfaces across clients, regulators, technical advisers, contractors and supply chain partners. Leading bid sections and proposals, and helping shape new services and propositions.

We recognise that relevant experience can be gained through different career paths, and we do not expect candidates to fully meet every criterion. You may have a degree in relevant subject and chartered or working towards it, through APM, ICE, IMechE, IET, RICS, CIOB, CMI the Energy Institute or other relevant professional bodies.

• Relevant experience in consulting, project delivery, infrastructure or the energy sector with a track record of leading projects or major workstreams to time, budget and quality.
• A trusted adviser approach: understanding what clients really need, challenging constructively and turning analysis into clear recommendations.
• Experience developing and supporting others, including reviewing their work and helping them grow, which may include line management.
• Confident use of digital and AI tools, and an interest in using them to improve how we deliver for clients.
