- Operate quality assurance, control, and document management systems, monitor and report on expenditure, and lead complex, high-value projects focusing on Building Energy Performance.
- Develop client strategies for site and estate-wide decarbonisation, produce detailed calculations using industry-standard software, and prepare technical specifications and design drawings.
- Collaborate with AtkinsRéalis GTC to add value, represent AtkinsRéalis in meetings, conduct site surveys, inspections, and site work monitoring, and maintain records according to standards.
- Manage project delivery elements, monitor progress, report anomalies, assist in technical development of junior staff, identify business opportunities, and manage commercial aspects.
What you can bring:
- Degree or equivalent in a related field, with sustainability, energy, or carbon qualifications/accreditations. Chartered Engineer (or working towards CEng) with CIBSE or IET.
- Strong team player with excellent communication skills, capable of clear technical expression, presentation, and report writing.
- Knowledge of common contract forms (NEC, JCT), relevant legislation, regulations, and standards (building regs, London Plan, BREEAM).
- Proficiency in digital tools, energy reduction methods, decarbonisation approaches, and data analytics. Awareness of building physics principles, passive design, fabric-first approaches, and experience with measurement, verification, commissioning, and post-installation evaluation.
