We are currently looking for a Director of Sustainability to work in a client-side opportunity that would represent a very sensible career move for numerous reasons, the most important benefit of joining a business such as this would be the scale and sheer volume of buildings you can effect from a sustainability perspective.

With approximately 40% of carbon emissions arising from property and environmental deadlines that are fast approaching, they recognises the urgent necessity to improve environmental performance of their large portfolios of existing buildings at both planning and asset level.

What you'll need:

  • Excellent relationship building and client management skills alongside clear communication skills, with ability to co-ordinate projects.

  • A track record of delivering successful sustainability programmes and energy cost-saving initiatives for corporate clients in banking, retail, logistics and energy sectors.

  • Driven by the desire to develop sustainability programmes, which align the supply chain behind a common goal and deliver real corporate value.

  • A passionate thought leader with experience of developing and delivering CPDs, workshops and seminars to internal teams on sustainability related legislation, emerging sectoral trends and the performance of sustainability programmes.

  • The ability to understand and interpret client sustainability requirements and respectfully challenge the status quo.

  • An understanding of the role of managing agents in the property cycle, knowledge of voluntary and mandatory sustainability and energy reporting protocols applicable to property owners.

  • A passion for emerging sectoral trends and the performance of sustainability programmes relating to specific sustainability themes such as energy management, circular economy, social impact.

  • An appetite for a career defining, Sustainability opportunity within the commercial property sector.

If you think you fit the bill and this opportunity sounds appealing, please get in touch for more information.
