About the role:
This role can be based from our Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol or Cardiff office.
We are seeking an experienced project manager to join us in our friendly, established Environmental Planning team which has built a strong reputation for delivery of Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) for often complex projects across a range of sectors particularly including onshore renewable energy and energy infrastructure projects. You will be working collaboratively with our specialist internal teams of ecologists, ornithologists, archaeologists, and landscape architects, as well as our network of external consultants, and our high-profile clients on an exciting range of projects across the UK.
Working as a valued member of our team, you will be equipped with all the necessary support to continue to progress your career in EIA project management and will have the opportunity to work on a range of projects including onshore renewable energy developments, electricity transmission infrastructure, urban regeneration, master-planning and other stimulating new developments. LUC also regularly undertakes independent EIA-Report/Environmental Statement reviews, and you will have the opportunity to use your EIA skills and experience to manage and co-ordinate the reviews.
Our EIA project managers are involved in all stages of project development from tendering through to completion and submission of the EIA-Report/ES and manage all aspects of the work carried out. Our project managers report directly to, and work alongside, our project directors and are supported by our EIA consultants as one dedicated EIA team. We will actively encourage you to continue to build on your skills and experience and LUC will support you in your career development as an EIA practitioner with training and mentoring and progression through the membership levels of ISEP (formally IEMA)/RTPI.
The role includes the opportunity to share and participate actively in the management and ownership of the business through the Employee Ownership Trust, which places full ownership of the company with the employees.
The role is based in LUC’s offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol or Cardiff. We work in a hybrid model with people being in the office a minimum of two days per week. There will also be travel required to visit sites, client offices and other office locations.
A full-time role is based on 37.5 hours per week (Monday to Friday). However, LUC has a strong track record in flexible working, and we have been recognised for our flexible working culture, so we are happy to discuss a range of flexible working options for this role including part time hours (minimum 30 hours per week) if desired.
Salary: £39,000 - £60,000 FTE (Dependent on experience).
This is a great time to be joining LUC. Since its creation nearly 60 years ago, LUC has been driven by the belief that it has a critical role to play in shaping the world around us for the better. This work has never been more critical or urgent.
Experience and qualifications
We are seeking an experienced, organised and enthusiastic individual who is keen to utilise their EIA skills and knowledge to manage and deliver a range of projects. The role is primarily the management of the EIA process and technical specialists, with real-world opportunities for development and progression. The successful candidate will work closely with the project director who will act as a mentor to provide support and advice as well as more junior members of the team who will assist our project managers in delivering quality EIAs.
