About The Role

Working as part of a growing ESG team this role requires you to ensure our employees, clients and properties are operating in the most environmentally and socially responsible way possible, which is more than just our legal obligation.

Reporting directly to the ESG Director and Head of ESG Refurbishment and Development, the role will require you to take the lead on our auditing and reporting procedures, advising clients on energy efficiency opportunities to feed directly into Net Zero reporting and targets. Based on your industry expertise the key focus will be on identifying ways to reduce operational energy and carbon through identifying both issues and opportunities in the running of plant and systems throughout both the Landlord and tenant managed areas of buildings.

You should have experience collecting, analysing, formulating and reporting data to clients.

You should then be able to identify opportunities and performance gaps along with the client.

Undertaking and compiling reports in respect of energy efficiency and decarbonisation audits across a range of property types to approved standards and for legislative reporting such as ESOS.
Identifying operational issues and reduction strategies. Providing an oversight of the implementation of low net carbon solutions
Providing insights to the wider business regarding changes in the energy and environmental regulatory framework. Report assessment results and recommendations to stakeholders

What We Expect From You

Proven experience in an Auditor position ideally from either an electrical or heating background in the property industry.

A proactive approach to an organised work schedule. You should have the ability to prioritise work projects, manage multiple projects simultaneously and demonstrate effect problem solving skills.
