About the Role
Are you passionate about improving the environmental performance of infrastructure development projects and helping the UK deliver its net zero commitments? Join AECOM’s established Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) team of over 165 professionals across the UK and Ireland. As a Senior EIA Consultant, you will coordinate environmental inputs to EIA screening and scoping reports, Environmental Statements, and supporting documents, including technical review of specialist chapters. You will be involved throughout all project life stages from early strategy and site identification, through feasibility, optioneering, design, construction, and operation phases. You will work across a diverse portfolio of large-scale development projects including energy generation (carbon capture, hydrogen, renewables), energy distribution and transmission, carbon capture pipelines, strategic rail, highway improvements, regeneration, and developments in ecommerce, minerals and waste, water, defence, aviation, commercial, residential, and industrial sectors.

Your role will require a critical eye for quality to ensure deliverables meet the highest standards. You will develop project management skills by coordinating resources and budgets, collaborate with integrated design teams to improve environmental outcomes, identify constraints and mitigation solutions, and engage directly with clients and internal teams. You will also support business development activities and promote AECOM’s environmental services internally and externally.

At AECOM, you will thrive in an inclusive, forward-thinking environment with access to career development, technical practice networks, AECOM University, volunteering days, and a flexible hybrid working model. Join us to be part of a global team delivering projects that create positive, tangible impacts and help build sustainable legacies for future generations.
