About the Role
Join Arup, a global collective of designers, advisors, and experts dedicated to sustainable development.

At Arup, you will be part of an extraordinary collective that encourages curiosity, individuality, and collaboration. You will have the opportunity to work on socially meaningful projects that impact clients, communities, and your career while contributing to Arup’s legacy of excellence and sustainability.

Experience
- Some environmental consultancy experience, including coordinating EIAs and working with multi-disciplinary teams.
