BEFORE WE BEGIN...

LOCATION:  Your work location is up to you! We are big believers in flexible working, and that includes working from home. If you prefer an office environment, we have offices in Edinburgh. Glasgow, London and Bristol, and we are happy to talk about hybrid working patterns.

OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS: We won't make you jump through hoops or present to the Board - we prefer to keep things simple.

We have a relaxed approach to getting to know each other - an initial chat to talk through your CV, followed by a more structured interview with the line manager you'll be working with. We are being interviewed just as much as you, so we welcome your questions!

Background

ITPEnergised is a client-focused consultancy, providing project management, feasibility assessment and environmental and energy services to a range of sectors, including onshore and offshore renewables, urban development and infrastructure, industrial & manufacturing, and oil & gas (energy transition). 

As part of our ongoing development, we are now seeking to complement our Environmental Planning team with experienced EIA project managers, at Senior to Principal Consultant grade. 

Working with our existing team of environmental planning and EIA experts, you will support, manage, and deliver committed projects and contribute to the development of ITPEnergised’s related offering, commensurate to your grade and experience.

We are primarily interested in candidates with a solid grounding in EIA project management, particularly in onshore renewables.
