AtkinsRéalis is a world-leading design, engineering and project management organization. We connect people, data and technology to transform the world's infrastructure and energy systems. Together, with our industry partners and clients, and our global team of consultants, designers, engineers and project managers, we can change the world. We have a strong presence in the Middle East that enables us to build deep and lasting relationships with our clients. We share their goals and long-term ambitions; we’re on the same journey to create places and infrastructure which will support long term sustainable development, healthy living and vibrant communities.

AtkinsRéalis is deeply committed to addressing the global challenge of climate change. The AtkinsRéalis’ Climate team works across technical advisory in climate change policy, climate risk, adaptation and resilience, international development, climate finance, climate-related financial disclosure (TCFD), Net Zero transition, and nature-based solutions.

Our Climate teams work alongside experts involved in Net Zero transition planning, working across multiple sectors, including transport, water, power, and buildings and places.

Position Summary

• Working with clients to help them meet climate-related reporting requirements (TCFD, Paris-Alignment, EU Taxonomy, Adaptation Reporting Power, etc) and develop strategies to manage climate risks.

• Multilateral development banks and governments (e.g. enhancing organisational capacity by developing climate risk frameworks, climate risk assessments for infrastructure investments, and providing advisory support for international development projects, including climate finance)

• In general, the work combines strategic planning, applied science and economics, climate modelling, evidence-based policy advice, and engineering, supported by other AtkinsRéalis specialist teams in these areas.
