Permanent, Full Time Are you passionate about sustainable building design and want to join a leading independent sustainability and engineering consultancy? We have a fantastic opportunity for a Sustainability Consultant and BREEAM Assessor to join our growing Energy and Sustainability team.

Method operates a hybrid working policy so this will be a blend of the office and working remotely. Graduate Training Programme
Our Graduate programme lasts around 2-3 years; however, this timescale is wholly dependent on the individual paths each person will take. The aim of the programme is to give all graduates a structured pathway for the start of their career. All graduates at Method work on real live projects and learn on the job carrying out tasks for those projects – this programme gives you some insight into what to expect within those two years including the formalities of technical reviews, membership of professional institutions, etc. Technical and non-technical education such as presentation skills and time management courses will make up a significant part of the programme. Everyone’s training is individual and tailored to their strengths and weaknesses enabling you to reach your full potential and gain both reward and satisfaction. You will also be encouraged to develop your qualifications and become affiliated with an accredited institution such as CIBSE, IMechE, IET, or the Energy Institute. Role and Responsibilities

Working on a wide variety of projects, with multiple clients, across industry sectors. Potential for conducting embodied carbon Life Cycle Assessment modelling to assess carbon impact of construction materials on projects using OneClick LCA. Potential for development into various sustainability services including energy and sustainability statements for planning and energy/water analysis. Becoming familiar with and keeping abreast of industry/sector initiatives (e.g. LETI, net zero, Building Regulations). Experience and Qualifications

A passion for sustainability. Educated to degree level in Environmental Science, Geography, Sustainability, Engineering, or a related discipline. Knowledge or awareness of BREEAM would be beneficial. To meet with current legislation, at the time of starting their employment, the successful candidate must have permission to work in the UK. We offer 24 days’ leave plus additional flexi-leave (up to 12 days flex, plus an additional 10 days’ unpaid leave), flexible working hours, private healthcare, life assurance, company pension scheme, regular appraisals, and a profit-share bonus scheme.
