2025 Summer Placement – Sustainability Consultant
Nationwide
Are you an aspiring sustainability consultant looking to make a difference in the world around you? Do you want the chance to grow, learn, and be supported by industry leaders? This ever-changing world will be shaped by the buildings put into it, and we know it’s often the newest minds who have the brightest ideas.
As a leading international firm of consulting engineers, we didn’t build a 150-year legacy by standing still. The built environment is where our design-led work can carve out a better future for the planet and its people. For us, it’s about putting heart, soul, innovation, and sustainability into the buildings we work on.
We play a major role in driving sustainable development. We help create some of the most innovative low-carbon buildings, pushing the limit on what’s possible. Our projects cover almost every sector – from healthcare, residential, and retail, to defense, arts & heritage, and education – ranging from small studies and reports to large-scale developments valued at more than £4 billion.
What you’ll be doing:
If you are looking to develop your skills and experience in the industry whilst on your summer break then apply for a placement opportunity with us! Working on live projects, you’ll have a chance to make a real impact.
You’ll work within a design team gaining valuable insight into engineering systems design, improving your practical application of engineering theory, and gaining an introduction to the fast-moving world of construction and consultancy. By the end of your placement, you should be able to make a more informed decision about your career path.
Start your journey in a career that counts! Our summer placements typically last between 8-12 weeks and can provide an excellent opportunity to secure a permanent position with us once you graduate.
What do you need?
1. Applications are welcomed from students who are currently studying toward a degree in a sustainability-related subject.
2. A genuine interest in developing a career within the sector, with fresh ideas, enthusiasm, confidence, and an entrepreneurial, creative spirit.
3. You will be asked to upload your CV and answer a couple of application questions.
4. Any offer of employment will be conditional upon you providing evidence of your right to work in the UK.
We are committed to being a place where underrepresented individuals and communities are not just included, but where marginalised knowledge and experience is valued, amplified, and harnessed. So, we strongly encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, including women, people of the Global Majority, LGBTQ+ individuals, disabled people, neurodivergent people, and those from all other underrepresented or marginalised groups. To learn more about our approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion, see our DEI strategy.
Adjustments and accommodations:
If there are adjustments or accommodations that we can put in place to ensure you can participate and give your best at any stage of the recruitment process (whether relating to disability, neurodivergence, or anything else), please let us know.
We are committed to enabling a healthy work-life balance for all employees. So, we welcome applications from candidates seeking flexible working arrangements to suit their particular needs and lifestyle, including part-time, term-time-only, and remote working.
