Take the lead in shaping sustainable investments.

๐Ÿ“ Location: Hybrid, London/ Manchester/ Leeds

A forward-thinking environmental consultancy is seeking a Senior Environmental Due Diligence Consultant to strengthen its growing Environmental Transaction Services (ETS) team. This role offers the opportunity to deliver high-impact, commercially focused advisory services on some of the most significant real estate and corporate transactions in the UK and Europe.

This is an ideal position for a technically strong, client-focused professional who's ready to step into a leadership role within a supportive and fast-paced consultancy environment. With a focus on quality, insight, and impact, the role combines technical delivery with project management, client engagement, and mentoring of junior team members.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading the delivery of environmental due diligence (EDD) assessments for property transactions, mergers, and acquisitions.
  • Conducting and reviewing Phase I environmental site assessments and desktop studies, ensuring technical rigour and commercial clarity.
  • Liaising directly with clients to advise on environmental risks, liabilities, and opportunities within investment strategies.
  • Supporting project planning, cost estimation, proposal writing, and quality assurance processes.
  • Coaching and mentoring junior consultants, contributing to a high-performing, collaborative team culture.
  • Coordinating with internal specialists and external partners to deliver multidisciplinary solutions.

Ideal candidates will have:

  • Proven experience in environmental due diligence within a consultancy or corporate advisory context.
  • A strong technical understanding of ground risk, environmental compliance, and sustainability considerations in property and investment transactions.
  • A relevant degree in environmental science, geology, engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Chartered status or working towards chartership with a recognised professional body (e.g., IEMA, CIWEM, CGeol).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate complex issues for a range of stakeholders.
  • Project management capabilities and a proactive, solution-led approach to delivery.
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel occasionally across the UK and Europe.

Why this opportunity stands out:
This consultancy is on a mission to create a safer, more sustainable world - working with major investors, developers, and corporate clients to deliver actionable insights that drive smart, responsible decision-making.

Offering a values-driven culture, genuine career development, and exposure to high-profile projects, this role is perfect for an environmental professional looking to step up and make an impact where it matters most.

Interested?

An exciting next step for those ready to lead with purpose. Apply now to be part of the transformation.
