Make an Impact with BREEAM – Join a Growing Team. As part of an exciting period of growth, we are launching an Assessment Centre intake for Technical Auditors, with the BREEAM team set to expand significantly over the next 12 months. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a high-impact, specialist team at a pivotal time in its development.
We are seeking proactive, detail-orientated individuals to join our expert BREEAM team as Technical Auditors. You do not need prior auditing experience; what matters most are the key skills and background of an auditor: STEM background, strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, clear communication and the ability to review evidence and apply BREEAM technical standards consistently.
All longlisted candidates will first complete an online assessment designed to test these core skills. Successful candidates will then be invited to take part in the assessment centre, where you will have the chance to demonstrate your abilities in a practical and interactive environment.
