We'll look for well developed scoping, planning and project management skills, and the ability to approach tasks from a fresh perspective, challenge established ways of working and plan ahead. Ready to build excellent relationships with everyone you work with, foster an ethos of collaborative teamwork, and communicate effectively to implement project deliverables, you'll be happy to work under pressure while prioritising tasks and managing tight deadlines. An independent, proactive and strategic thinker, you should also possess astute political awareness and extensive knowledge of statutory requirements, codes of practice, industry and best practice developments concerning Sustainability, Net Zero and Carbon Emissions reductions and the Circular Economy. When it comes to qualifications we'll look for a degree in a relevant field - for example in architecture, structural engineering, building services or environmental engineering, and a post-graduate qualification or chartership in a related area would be desirable. It goes without saying that you'll possess strong communication skills with the ability to write clear and persuasive reports, project proposals and committee reports, and you should also be capable of coaching, developing and mentoring less experienced members of our teams.
