About the Role
AtkinsRéalis is seeking a pro-active and enthusiastic Geo-Environmental Consultant to join our award-winning Contaminated Land & Hydrogeology team within the Sustainable Land and Resource Management Practice. You will be part of a leading group of contaminated land experts delivering innovative brownfield solutions to major UK infrastructure projects across transportation, energy, buildings and places, and water markets. This role offers the opportunity to work alongside industry leaders, contribute to high-profile UK and international projects, and develop your career in a supportive, collaborative, multi-disciplinary environment.

Your responsibilities will include organisation, collation and assessment of desk-based information as part of Phase 1 Contaminated Land Desk Studies; design and supervision of Phase 2 site investigations including environmental and geo-environmental site investigation and monitoring scopes. The role involves regular site-based work such as contractor supervision, soil sampling and logging, environmental monitoring and sampling, and supporting others on site.

You will ensure compliance with Health and Safety policies including preparation of H&S Plans and managing safety on site. You will prepare and deliver factual and interpretative reporting, including digital data management, development of conceptual site models, qualitative and quantitative risk assessments for human health and the water environment, hydrogeological modelling, and Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA). Additional duties include supporting remediation design, implementation and verification.

Continuous professional development is encouraged with support from the business to meet training needs. You will manage your own workload and support senior management to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to quality and client expectations.

Experience

Additional skills in hydrogeological modelling, EIA, environmental permitting, waste and materials management are advantageous. Experience with geospatial data (GIS) using QGIS and/or ArcGIS is welcomed.
