Job Description:
Are you interested in working on innovative projects such as Erebus, Salamander, and Dolphyn? ERM is a leading consultancy in consenting floating offshore wind projects, and we need your skills!
We are seeking a Senior to Principal EIA Consultant (depending on experience) in offshore wind. Experience of consenting Scottish offshore wind projects is essential. We welcome candidates from regulatory, consulting, or developer backgrounds. ERM offers flexibility in location, with roles based at any of our offices in Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Harrogate, York, Manchester, Norwich, Pembroke, Cardiff, Bristol, Oxford, London, or Southampton. The role follows a hybrid work model, with approximately eight days per month in the office.
Our long-term clients include major developers, and our projects span onshore and offshore wind, green hydrogen, solar, battery storage, and grid connection. We also provide advisory services to government.
You will be part of a dynamic and expanding team delivering environmental consultancy services to internal and external clients, leading the work of less experienced team members. Your responsibilities include leading environmental inputs for planning applications, from screening and scoping to environmental appraisals, large-scale EIAs, and post-planning condition discharge.
What’s on offer?
We provide flexible working arrangements to suit your lifestyle—whether you need to accommodate school runs, prefer working from home, or enjoy traveling. Benefits include 25 days of annual leave plus public holidays, a 6% pension contribution, biannual promotion opportunities, annual salary reviews, performance bonuses, private medical insurance, life assurance, income protection, employee assistance programs, volunteering and charitable giving options, travel season ticket loans, a premium Calm app account, Cycle2Work Scheme, and discounts on gym memberships and retail gift cards. We foster a safety-first, diverse, and inclusive culture that values differences. Our robust career framework and over 20 technical communities offer excellent opportunities for professional growth.
About you
Candidates must have experience in consenting and marine licensing for Scottish offshore wind projects. A degree in an environmental discipline is required. You should have relevant experience from consulting, regulatory, or industry roles, along with a comprehensive understanding of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).
