Degree Apprentice Sustainability Consultant - Bristol - 2026

We have a fantastic opportunity for a Degree Apprentice (Level 6) Sustainability Consultant to join our Apprentice Programme in our Sustainability team based in Bristol, starting in September 2026.

From local authorities to universities, and from masterplan developers to asset managers, we're proud to be shaping the approach that projects and organisations are taking to a net zero and climate resilient future.

Our projects involve a wide variety of sectors and locations - no two projects are ever quite the same and we work collaboratively with many other teams across the business, focused upon achieving the best balance of environmental, social and economic outcomes.

Our specialist teams provide advice, strategy development and reporting that covers every aspect of sustainability and climate change in a built environment context.

As an Apprentice you'll get a grounding in national and local requirements for planning and delivery of development projects, learn new skills on live projects across a breadth of different specialisms including climate risk assessment, whole life carbon and energy reporting and sustainable design and construction and the application of these on live projects, supporting the continued success of our established team.

This apprenticeship will enable you to learn whilst you earn as you study for an academic qualification. You'll gain a Level 6 BEng Environmental Practitioner degree in conjunction with one of the following Training Providers, Coventry University (block release), or Bristol UWE (day release). This will be discussed further during the recruitment process.

By submitting your application, you are confirming that your predicted grades at least meet the minimum defined entry requirements stated on this advertisement and that you are comfortable with the Training Provider options (which may include both day and block release options) also listed.
