Job Description

We’re partnering with a fast-growing, forward-thinking contractor that delivers high-tech facilities across manufacturing, logistics, life sciences, and data centre sectors. As their Sustainability Lead, you’ll play a pivotal role in embedding ESG into every phase of project delivery – from the ground up.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a self-starter who’s ready to own their agenda, influence at all levels, and leave a lasting legacy on the built environment.

Where You’ll Make an Impact:

  • Lead from the front – Act as the go-to sustainability expert across two major projects in Enfield, London and Saunderton, Buckinghamshire, ensuring best-in-class environmental performance.
  • Drive project certifications – Own BREEAM, LEED and other accreditations with clients and consultants, keeping everyone aligned and accountable.
  • Shape strategy – Embed the wider ESG strategy into live project delivery, pushing forward key goals around carbon, compliance, and culture.
  • Train and influence – Build capability across teams through tailored sustainability training and impactful reporting.
  • Raise the bar – Regularly visit sites to champion environmental compliance and identify new opportunities for sustainable innovation.

What You Bring:

  • A track record supporting sustainability in construction projects – with a passion for pushing boundaries, not ticking boxes.
  • Confident leading conversations on environmental compliance, certification, and planning conditions.
  • Experienced with tools like BREEAM, LEED or carbon/impact assessments.
  • A natural communicator – clear, credible, and able to inspire change across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Proactive and autonomous – you’re a doer, someone who thrives on making things happen and taking ownership.
