Sustainability Consultant (BREEAM Focus)

Wolverhampton Area | Competitive Salary (DOE) £30k-£40k | Hybrid & Flexible Working | Early Finish Fridays

Overview

A well-established and growing building services and sustainability consultancy is looking to appoint a Sustainability Consultant with a strong focus on BREEAM delivery to join its team in the Luton area.

This opportunity would suit someone confident in managing BREEAM projects independently, who is also keen to broaden their experience across energy modelling, life cycle assessment, and wider sustainability advisory services.

With an expanding sustainability offering and increasing project demand, this role offers genuine progression and the chance to develop into a more senior position over time.

What's on Offer

• Competitive salary (depending on experience)
• Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
• Early finish on Fridays
• Clear progression pathway within a growing sustainability team
• Ongoing training and professional development opportunities
• Exposure to a range of sectors including commercial, residential, healthcare, and education
• Supportive and collaborative team environment

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years' experience in BREEAM consultancy
• Strong understanding of BREEAM processes and whole life carbon principles
• Ability to manage projects independently
• Confident communicator, comfortable leading workshops and engaging with clients
• Interest in developing across wider sustainability disciplines

The Role

You will take the lead on BREEAM assessments across multiple sectors, working closely with design teams and clients to deliver sustainable outcomes.

While BREEAM will be the core focus initially, there will be strong opportunities to diversify into:

• Energy modelling collaboration
• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
• Embodied carbon analysis
• ESG-related advisory work (as services continue to expand)

This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to take on more ownership and play a key role within a growing and competitive consultancy.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver BREEAM assessments from feasibility through to certification
• Interpret BREEAM criteria and advise design teams accordingly
• Coordinate and review evidence submissions
• Lead client and design team workshops
• Manage BRE submissions and certification process
• Support the integration of wider sustainability strategies into projects

If you're an experienced BREEAM professional looking for a step up in responsibility, with strong support, training, and long-term progression - this could be a great move.
