Job Description
Senior Sustainability Consultant
📍 Bristol | 💼 Flexible Hybrid Working | 💰 Salary DOE + Benefits + Bonus
Help shape the future of sustainable design.
A forward-thinking MEP consultancy based in Bristol is on the lookout for a Senior Sustainability Consultant to help lead the charge on low-carbon, high-performance building projects. From concept to delivery, you’ll play a key role in embedding sustainability at every stage of the design process — not just ticking boxes, but influencing real outcomes.
This team doesn’t follow the standard route — they ask “why?”, challenge assumptions, and deliver creative, data-driven energy strategies for buildings that work better for people and the planet.
What you’ll be doing:
Leading sustainability and energy strategy input on a range of exciting projects
Writing and presenting Energy & Sustainability Statements for planning applications
Overseeing BREEAM assessments, energy modelling and compliance reporting
Advising clients and design teams on renewables, low/zero carbon technologies and retrofit solutions
Staying ahead of regulatory shifts and helping the team and clients do the same
Supporting junior consultants and guiding them through best practice
Getting involved in shaping the team’s approach and technical direction
About you:
You’re someone who’s passionate about delivering real sustainability—not just compliance. You know your way around UK building regs, low-energy systems, and environmental certifications, and you're confident working with clients, architects, and engineers alike.
We’re looking for:
6+ years’ experience in sustainability within the built environment
Strong technical understanding of energy modelling, planning policy, and assessment tools (SAP/SBEM, TM54, BREEAM, etc.)
A background in engineering, sustainability, or building physics (degree qualified)
Good communicator, naturally curious, and always pushing for better
Ideally on the way to or already chartered (CIBSE, IEMA, IES, etc.)
What’s in it for you?
💻 Hybrid & flexible working – choose how you work best
🌿 Work on meaningful, sustainability-first projects (retrofit, mixed-use, education, commercial)
🎯 Clear progression opportunities and technical development
👥 Join a small, collaborative team that values creativity, independence, and impact
💡 Genuine input into strategy, tools, and the future of the sustainability offer
🚴♂️ Cycle-to-work scheme, gym membership, private medical, pension, bonus, and more
Ready to have more influence on sustainable design?
