Our time is NOW.
ERM are seeking a Principal Technical Consultant to help lead our growing and close-knit Acoustics team in Northern Europe. This team is part of a broader global technical community of over 100 noise and vibration specialists that you will have the opportunity to work and develop within. In this role, you can enjoy hybrid working available from any of our 16 UK offices.
We are experiencing rapid growth in renewable energy workload, and this appointment will help us to capitalise on that. The successful candidate will bring proven onshore wind skills and experience, but you will also have the opportunity to work in other areas covered by our low carbon economic transition strategy including: solar energy, battery storage, electrical transmission and grid connections, hydrogen production, storage, transmission and use, carbon capture and storage, mining, high speed rail and data centres. You will work in projects in the UK and internationally.
In this senior, client-facing role, you will lead the delivery of the high-quality noise and vibration assessments and services we provide, either as part of broader Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) or standalone acoustics commissions. You will use your skills to provide technical support and expert advice to our clients, both internal (within ERM) and external, which are diverse in nature given the broad interests and global reach of our business.
You will be leading technical work streams and supporting commercial development through bid work, helping us grow our market share. You will collaborate with technical teams and project managers around the business, in order to identify any potential noise issues and if these may impact on design and other parts of the EIA. You will also support team development, driving technical excellence within the team by coaching, mentoring and completing technical reviews of work produced by the team.
Why join ERM?
We are committed to building a sustainable future with the world's leading organisations, but we believe that change starts at home. That's why we've operated the ERM Foundation since 1995. Take a look at the Foundation Annual Report - we think you'll be impressed.
We offer flexible working to suit your life - need to do the school run? Not a problem! More productive and happy if you work from home a few days per week? Go ahead! Love to travel? Ask about our Cross Border Remote Working! You'll have 25 days annual leave + public holidays, 6% pension contribution, EV car salary sacrifice scheme (Octopus), twice annual promotion opportunities, annual salary review and performance related bonus, private medical insurance, life assurance, income protection, employee assistance programme, volunteering and Give As You Earn opportunities, travel season ticket loan, premium account for Calm (the #1 app for sleep and meditation), Cycle2Work Scheme, plus discounts on gym membership and gift cards for a wide variety of retailers and restaurants. We also offer employees a Safety First, diverse and inclusive culture in which difference is embraced, valued and celebrated. With a robust career framework in place and 20+ technical communities of global experts you can join, there are great opportunities to advance your career here at ERM.
About you
You'll be a seasoned professional with extensive experience in similar roles, leading the delivery of acoustics assessments, on time and to budget. UK Onshore Wind experience is essential.
You'll be degree qualified in Acoustics or similar and possess a solid understanding of acoustic principles along with the ability to write clear, concise reports. You'll have commercial acumen along with experience of bid preparation/business development with new or existing key clients.
