Sustainability Consultant (Client-Side)

Sustainability Consultant (Client Side) - London - to £43K + 10% Bonus + Pension 12%

Are you passionate about delivering sustainable buildings for the future? Are you content to work on the decarbonisation of just one building at a time or are you interested in having a bigger impact by working in a diverse team, effecting real change in sustainability across their large international portfolios of buildings?

Then it is worth considering a career move into the Sustainability team one of the world's leading and most respected Property Consultancies.

Over the past 8 years, this Property Consultancy has developed its own internal Energy Infrastructure and Sustainability Consulting team to meet and deliver sustainable solutions to their clients, who are some of the largest owners and occupiers of real estate estates portfolios in the world.

Effectively a client-side role that could represent a very sensible career move for numerous reasons. Working within a Property Consultancy would allow you to take ownership of your own client portfolio with direct access to the client, working as part of the client's consultancy team and acting as the client's representative on projects.

By far the most attractive aspect of joining such a business is the scale and sheer volume of buildings you can effect from a sustainability perspective. Rather than just consulting, designing or modelling a single building, you'll get to have a huge influence on a client's portfolio of buildings which in some cases can be 100's of buildings for one client. Providing you with an opportunity to make a huge environmental impact across large portfolios of buildings, rather than one or two buildings at a time.

What you'll need:

We're looking for a Sustainability Consultant to join this truly global business and work on these major client relationships, with the full support of the Associates and Directors in the business.

A sustainability consultant who would be familiar with benchmarking assessments (e.g. BREEAM, LEED, WELL) and ideally would be willing learn to manage the programme of portfolio compliance for their clients.

Some experience of Net Zero Energy/Decarbonisation Audits is required but use IES will be trained if you are not yet familir with IES Modelling.

Candidates should have 1-3 years of experience who would be willing to learn through working closely with our senior consultants. You may bring with you some building physics background or energy management knowledge, but this is not a prerequisite.

With direct access to clients, you'll be working with these clients at very early stages, way before that of a traditional consultancy, advising on how to develop their ESG and NZC Corporate Sustainability Strategies, but you'll also be ensuring their sustainable requirements are implemented at building level, and make a huge NZC impact across a large portfolio of buildings.

Offering absolute career stability and with growth in mind, due to their success, this global Commercial Property Consultancy has a clear plan to grow their M&E offering by 50% over the next three years, opening up a huge ongoing career opportunity for you.

You will join an energetic, highly innovative, collaborative and rapidly expanding sustainability consultancy team. With strong client relationship and programme management skills, you will thrive in this client facing role.

Over the last 10 years I have worked in partnership with the leading Commercial Property consultancies, developing hugely successful Sustainability, ESG & NZC teams. Such a move would set you apart from your peers by developing a unique and clear understanding of the sustainability drivers behind property ownership and development.
