We’re continuing our partnership with a leading infrastructure business and are looking for an experienced Environmental Manager / Senior Environmental Manager to take the lead across two major London infrastructure projects. Both projects are at an exciting early stage, giving you the opportunity to shape environmental strategy and delivery from the ground up rather than step into an established operation. With complex construction activity, multiple project phases and years of delivery ahead, you’ll have genuine scope to influence how these projects are delivered.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll work directly with Project Directors and project teams, providing authority, challenge and expert environmental guidance.

What you'll be doing:

  • Lead environmental delivery – Own environmental management across two major projects, advising senior project leadership and driving high standards on site.
  • Shape the strategy – Develop environmental strategies, systems, plans and controls at the earliest stages of project delivery.
  • Drive performance – Lead EMS implementation, compliance, audits, monitoring and continual improvement across the projects.
  • Own energy & carbon – Support energy and carbon management alongside your core environmental responsibilities, helping drive better project performance.
  • Influence & challenge – Be a trusted voice on the project, confidently challenging poor practice and ensuring environmental risks are properly managed.

Who they're looking for:

  • Senior-level experience – An experienced Environmental Manager or Senior Environmental Manager with the confidence to take ownership.
  • Major project background – Core experience within construction, infrastructure, civil engineering or similarly complex project environments.
  • Technical expertise – Solid knowledge of Environmental Management Systems, ISO 14001, environmental compliance and site-based environmental management.
  • Energy & carbon knowledge – Experience in energy and carbon is desirable, although candidates with strong environmental expertise who are keen to develop in these areas will also be considered.
  • Natural authority – Someone confident influencing senior stakeholders, engaging construction teams and making sure environmental standards are delivered in practice.
