About the Role
Stantec is seeking an Energy & Sustainability Consultant / Senior Consultant to join our dynamic Building Performance team. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to creating efficient buildings, heat networks, and reducing operational energy with social value, responding creatively to the needs of people, places, and the environment. You will support the creation of energy models and produce sustainability and energy strategies to help clients make informed decisions about their buildings and energy systems. Our projects span public and private sectors nationally and internationally, including educational buildings, commercial and industrial properties, regeneration projects, and national frameworks. You will work on varied and challenging assignments, with opportunities to learn from a wider group and advance your career. Join a reputable firm recognised as Consulting Firm of the Year at the 2023 NCE Awards, known for market success and a strong focus on people and culture.

Experience
Experience with key software tools including IESVE (especially ApacheHVAC and overheating analysis), SAP and/or SBEM for building fabric analysis, and OneClick LCA for embodied carbon assessment is essential. Familiarity with CFD, hydraulic and energy network modelling, microgrid analysis, renewable energy modelling, Python for data analysis, and data visualisation tools such as PowerBI or Tableau is beneficial. A solid understanding of SBTi, UK building regulations (e.g., Parts L, O, S, F, CP1), and sustainability assessment frameworks like BREEAM or NABERS UK is important.

About you
You should be passionate about sustainability and capable of translating abstract concepts and detailed technical requirements into clear, practical solutions. Enthusiasm for research, self-directed learning, and applying data-driven approaches is essential. Strong communication skills, particularly in report writing and presentations, are required. You will thrive in a friendly, collaborative culture and be motivated to contribute to impactful projects that support clean growth and sustainable communities.

Qualifications
A university degree in a relevant subject such as physics, geography, chemistry, or engineering (building services or mechanical) is required. An MSc in Sustainability or Environmental Management is advantageous but not essential.
