If you would like to hear more about this role, we are very happy to discuss your ambitions and what we can provide towards the next step in your career.
Our Team
If successful in your application, you will join our established UK nature team, contributing to a diverse project portfolio such as renewable and nuclear energy; residential, commercial and public sector development infrastructure; nature restoration and environmental impact assessment.
As a multidisciplinary consultancy, we work closely with colleagues from other teams including planning, placemaking, engineering, geo-technical and geo-environmental, landscape and ecology, transportation and asset management. You will be integral to elements of the identification of project opportunities, tendering, project delivery and management. You will be proactive in developing relationships with colleagues from across the business, liaising with other teams on a regular basis and supporting them through all stages of a project.
We pride ourselves on our ability to offer professional advice across a breadth of sectors, drawing on the knowledge of Sector Leads and experienced technical consultants from across Tetra Tech, to develop the best solutions.
As well as our regional offices, we operate flexible, hybrid working which allows our staff to choose where, how and when they work as long as they are working effectively as a team and our clients are receiving the high-quality service they expect. We focus on talent and skills, not postcode. The role will require site work as well as interaction with clients and colleagues so the willingness to travel in the UK is intrinsic to the role.
We wish to provide our staff a career which is a fulfilling component of their lives, so we are very happy to discuss flexible working for this role, including strategies such as compressed hours and flexible start or finish times.
