RPS is looking for an Environmental Coordinator to join our Environment & Infrastructure Team. You'll be supporting the coordination of our environmental teams working on projects across the UK and helping our clients manage and obtain environmental consents including for national infrastructure schemes and renewable energy projects.
We’re RPS, our projects are all around you. We define, design and manage projects that create shared value to a complex, urbanising and resource-scarce world. Our people are our success. We need people who share our passion on solving the problems that matter. Here you’ll find work that is challenging and rewarding, and you’ll be supported every step of the way.
What You’ll Be Doing
It’s an exciting role that will vary greatly from day to day. Some days will be spent working with our senior staff interacting with clients and attending meetings and workshops. Other days will be sent working with our various environmental teams with their delivery programmes and schedules. You could find yourself helping organise access for our field teams to undertake environmental surveys or be summarising and collating proposed environmental mitigation plans for our clients. You’ll have a key role in sharing information, data and reports to our teams but also our clients and environmental Regulators.
Who We’re Looking For
Given the nature of the role we’re looking for someone who is highly organised and is an excellent communicator. You’ll need a keen interest in the environment and sustainability to fit in with our team and we’d expect you to have a degree (or equivalent) in an environmental or related subject. An MSc would be helpful but not essential. The role would suit someone who’s been involved on development projects or worked in the construction sector. We’d also be very pleased to hear from candidates that have environmental management or compliance experience or have helped manage environmental programmes or surveys.
What’s in it for you?
We’re an accredited training provider – from entry level to master’s degree level professional qualifications in leadership & management and executive coaching & mentoring, we support learning and development for everyone.
A personal development plan and a transparent career pathway puts you in the driving seat of your career and you’ll be supported as far as you want to go.
We encourage and value different ideas, perspectives, and styles of thinking. We need a mix of experiences and skills to develop the most innovative ideas. We respect one another and recognise the potential and contribution of everyone. You’ll be joining a diverse community and a company that puts its people first and prioritises their wellbeing.
We understand the need to work flexibly, with agile offices and hybrid working offered as standard, we’re happy to talk about flexible working. This is a workplace that works for you.
A career here is far from ordinary. Here you’re not a number, you’re part of the solution.
What happens next?
Successful candidates would be invited for an interview with key senior members of environmental team.
If this opportunity suits your career journey, we’d love to hear from you. All applications will be considered, and we will try our best to respond to you within seven working days .
