Group Environmental Compliance Manager

Job description

Group Environmental Compliance Manager £60k + Car or Car Allowance

Homebased, UK with national travel

An established UK-based environmental services provider is seeking a Group Environmental Compliance Manager to lead its environmental governance across national operations. This home-based role offers the opportunity to work at a strategic level while delivering meaningful on-the-ground impact. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring compliance with all environmental legislation and standards, shaping policy, leading audits and inspections, and guiding teams across multiple sites. With regular travel across the UK, this is a visible and influential role that works closely with senior leadership, regulatory bodies, and operational teams.

The ideal candidate will bring a strong background in environmental science, engineering or a related field, along with significant experience in a senior compliance role. A deep understanding of hazardous waste, environmental permitting and ISO 14001 is essential, as is the ability to effectively communicate and influence at board level. Chartered status as a Waste Manager, or a clear path toward it, will be viewed favourably.

This is a key leadership role within the compliance function, offering the chance to shape and implement best practices across a diverse and dynamic organisation. The role includes responsibility for leading a small team and advising stakeholders at all levels. The company is committed to continual improvement and sustainability, and is looking for a professional who shares that ethos and brings both technical expertise and strategic insight.

In return, a competitive salary of up to £60,000 is offered, along with a company car or allowance, home-based flexibility, and the chance to play a pivotal role in protecting the environment. This is a rare opportunity for a motivated environmental professional to influence change at scale.

Applications are welcome from individuals across England with the right to work in the UK and a willingness to travel nationally.

About us: Allen & York have been matching purposeful people with purpose-led organisations for 30 years. We partner with our clients and candidates on roles that build an understanding of climate change, promote sustainability and create inclusive and responsible organisations, working towards a sustainable world for us all. Committed to inclusiveness in the workplace, we aim to increase diversity across all areas and therefore welcome applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of their ethnicity, race, gender, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, age, or whether or not they have a disability. Let's help build a better world, together.
