As a result of continued project success and the award of new projects, our projected pipeline of work is already looking very healthy, and our 2026-2027 growth strategy is aiming to further increase our projected revenue. The Land Discipline is therefore looking to expand and strengthen the team of experienced land professionals by adding Land Consultants at flexible locations across Scotland.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of WSP’s Land team in the delivery of land referencing, land acquisition, land access, formal consents, statutory orders and landowner engagement. Our Scotland Region is currently made up of land consultants, property specialists, and utility / topographical surveyors working across our Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perth offices, with expansion planned towards the Highlands, Moray and Aberdeenshire areas. We work closely with over 300 Land colleagues across the UK and Ireland delivering land services on a variety of projects across the energy, water, road, rail and active-travel sectors. Our clients develop major highway, rail, energy and renewable infrastructure projects all of which impact privately owned land. We are the largest Land Referencing business in the UK, with recent high‑profile projects include A9 Dualling, SSEN and various onshore renewables clients.

As part of our Land Team, you will combine office, home and on‑site working deliver components for the delivery of land consenting projects ensuring the validity, accuracy and auditability of information collected. You will work collaboratively in a fast‑paced environment, working with a team of Land Consultants to deliver the necessary information required to identify, notify, engage, and gain access to lands and secure required consents with landowners affected by infrastructure projects.

We work locally, making a difference to Scotland‑based projects but also nationally with other WSP teams, using our in‑house land information and consultation databases alongside GIS systems, with a focus on innovation and quality. Our colleagues are from a diverse range of careers backgrounds including Estate Management, Forestry, Agriculture, Project Management, Liaison Officers, Site Supervision, Land Agency and more. The diverse range of skills all combine to provide a full and comprehensive skillset within the business for our clients.
