Join to apply for the Principal Consultant – Coastal Resilience role at Royal HaskoningDHV

This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, ambitious individual looking for a new challenge and to drive forward their career. We are looking for people who can become leaders in flood and coastal resilience, with the ability to introduce new approaches, influence policy and connect clients and partners both in the UK and overseas.
About our Climate Resilience team:
The team are a dynamic, innovative, and dedicated group that are happy to help our clients achieve the best possible outcomes. As a company, we’re committed to continually developing and improving our methods and technology and this also applies to our staff.
The team is made up of Chartered Engineers and Environmental Consultants who boast a wealth of experience having worked in consultancy for many years. Our team of experts deliver Flood and Coastal strategies and solutions for public clients but also for landowners, businesses and communities throughout the UK and worldwide.
About the Role:
You will be part of an established but growing UK team, working closely with our company’s global presence. You will work closely with our Leading Professional in Flood and Coastal Resilience and other senior staff to expand our services to domestic and international clients. The team rarely does standard repeat work: we get involved in the more complex and challenging cases and like to pioneer new approaches, bringing clients and stakeholders along and focused on supporting their investment decisions. We have a Unique Selling Point and track record in the exchange of innovative water solutions between the Netherlands and the UK. You will help develop these successfully applied innovations, and new emerging ones, into commercially viable services. You will use your network and skills to seek out opportunities as well as respond effectively to tenders received.
Main Work Areas

• You will work across a broad Flood and Coastal Management (FCM) scope, including policy and strategy development, engineering, funding, stakeholder engagement and R&D.
• Provide technical input and project direction on a portfolio of projects and proposals, delivering projects on time and budget and creating sustainable client relationships.
• Develop new methods and innovations including digital tools, both to improve project work and as services to clients.
• Work with our Leading Professional to turn successful innovations into commercially viable services, and take a leading role on these.
• Be responsible for identifying opportunities.
• Provide technical support, staff development and mentoring for more junior colleagues.
• Link and work collaboratively with other senior staff across RHDHV in the UK and worldwide.
• Help raise the company’s profile through presentations, social media, networking and other client-facing activities

This role might be right for you if you:

• Want to follow a leading professional career path (rather than line management)
• Have excellent analytical and problem solving skills
• Are inquisitive and innovative
• Are able to influence and persuade.
• Are adaptable and flexible across a range of projects and clients.
• Have the ability to lead and work effectively in a multi-functional project team.
• Have worked within / close to FCM in a complex setting, for example in coastal management, business case development, strategic consultancy, development of methods & tools.
• Are chartered or equivalent (CEnv, CSci or CEng)

What we can offer you:
Ambitious. Exciting. Lively. Collaborative. Dynamic. That’s how our colleagues describe our company. Want to contribute to enhancing society with your expertise? Be part of an open network where you’re connected with the brightest and smartest people and technologies? Join us!
You can look forward to growing your career in a dynamic workplace with development opportunities and support on your career path. We have flexible working models to ensure a balance of family and working life.
