- Driving ESG Excellence - Embed ESG principles throughout design, procurement and construction, ensuring sustainability is integrated from concept through to completion.
- Inspiring & Developing Teams - Lead, mentor and grow a team of sustainability professionals while creating a culture of continuous improvement.
- Influencing Key Stakeholders - Collaborate with clients, consultants, regulators and supply chain partners to align sustainability goals and deliver exceptional outcomes.
- Championing Innovation - Introduce forward-thinking approaches, technologies and sustainable construction methodologies that create measurable impact.
Who They're Looking For:
- An Experienced Sustainability Leader - Someone with extensive experience delivering sustainability initiatives within the construction or built environment sector.
- A Strategic Thinker - A professional who can balance ambitious sustainability objectives with commercial realities and programme demands.
- A Technical ESG Expert - Excellent knowledge of sustainable construction, environmental regulations, whole-life carbon, energy efficiency and recognised certification frameworks.
- An Exceptional Communicator - Someone who can confidently engage with stakeholders at every level and influence positive change across multidisciplinary teams.
