What if you could do the kind of work the world needs?

At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects, and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.

A little more about your role…

We are now seeking a talented Principal Consultant/Associate to join our growing team, with a focus on technical and commercial due diligence in the energy sector. This is a unique opportunity to work across a diverse portfolio of infrastructure asset classes, including transport technologies and core-plus infrastructure, contributing to high-profile transactions and strategic advisory mandates.

Your role will include:

1. Delivering technical and commercial due diligence for investors, lenders, and developers in the energy sector (including renewables, CCUS, hydrogen, and emerging technologies).
2. Supporting cross-sector advisory projects across transport and wider infrastructure, applying analytical and commercial expertise.
3. Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and technical specialists across WSP's global network to deliver high-quality outputs.
4. Contributing to the development of methodologies, tools, and best practices within the team.
5. Possibility of travel overseas for projects (typically 2–3 day client trips for kick-off/site visits or final presentations in a typical 4–6 week project).

Your team:

At WSP, we are driven by a shared purpose: to create positive, long-lasting impacts on the world around us. As a global leader in strategic advisory services, we are proud to have been named #1 Advisor by Deal Value in 2024 by Infranews. Our Investor and Economic Advisory team is at the forefront of shaping the future of infrastructure, energy, and transport — supporting clients such as DESNZ as Technical Advisor to their CCUS programme — through complex investment decisions and delivering insights that drive sustainable growth.

The Infrastructure and Economic Advisory team has a strong track record of supporting clients at the early stage of projects such as feasibility plans, market forecasts, as well as technical assessments of complex projects. Our key clients include financial institutions (pension funds, investors, and financiers), operators (utilities, ports, rail, and mobility), and wider industry.

We are expanding from a strong transport base into new sectors, including industrial clients, major government programmes (e.g., Port Infrastructure Fund, UK Freeports), mobility, and core+ infrastructure. Our front-end consultancy is supported by 70,000 technical specialists globally, offering services such as transaction advisory (including PPP), investment advisory, market studies, demand forecasting, feasibility studies, and management consultancy.

What we will be looking for you to demonstrate…

• Experience in infrastructure advisory, ideally with a focus on energy or transport sectors.
• Background in a leading engineering consultancy, accountancy firm, or specialist advisory consultancy.
• Strong understanding of project finance, investment appraisal, and risk analysis.
• Experience delivering complex assignments and coordinating workstreams to tight deadlines.
• A collaborative mindset and the versatility to work across multiple sectors and disciplines.
• Strong spoken and written communication skills in English (additional languages desirable).
• A passion for shaping sustainable infrastructure and supporting the energy transition.
