Do you know your BREEAM from your building regs, your WELL from your workflows, and your spreadsheets from your site plans? You don’t need to be an expert in any or all of these but it helps.
Being a Sustainability Manager in construction isn’t about ticking boxes, it’s about driving efficiency. I;m looking for someone who knows how to integrate sustainability into every stage of a construction project, from tender reviews to on-site decisions. If you want to push for better materials, challenge outdated processes, and make sure projects meet real sustainability standards, this is for you.
Typical Responsibilities
* Supporting tender reviews, making sure sustainability is factored into bids where possible.
* Run workshops to keep everyone compliant.
* Tracking progress on sustainability goals, flagging and mitigating risks whist spotting improvement opportunities.
* Implement social value plans and suggesting ways to do more than just build.
* Identifying low-carbon materials and material reuse options to bring to the client teams.
* Building relationships with client teams, making sure sustainability stays a priority
* Ensuring subcontractor designs meet BREEAM, WELL, LEED, and NABERS standards.
Whilst not part of your day-to-day duties there’ll be an emphasis on bringing new ideas to the table, such as supply chain sustainability, compliance, regulatory and industry changes.
Minimum Requirements
* A degree in sustainability, environmental studies, or engineering.
* On-site experience so you have a deep understanding of how things work in practice.
* Strong communication skills as you’ll be leading workshops and working with clients.
* Excel and Data Analysis experience, to bring sustainability reporting to life.
Though not essential, a BREEAM AP qualification and/or experience working on WELL projects would be a bonus.
Why Apply?
* You’ll be working on high-profile commercial fit-out and construction projects, making sustainability a key focus.
* You’ll have the chance to work for a company where sustainable construction is in their DNA
* A chance to lead the process for certifications, supply chain sustainability, and material innovations.
