We are looking for a talented and enthusiastic Acoustic Consultant, or Experienced Graduate Acoustic Consultant, to join our growing team in London.

Across the UK and further afield, we are supporting a variety of development sectors from power and infrastructure, to manufacturing and data storage, as well as residential, educational, healthcare and heritage. To succeed in this role, you must have some relevant experience in acoustic consultancy either as part of an industrial placement year or post-graduate. You must also be diligent, enthusiastic to learn, and a team player able to support our extensive and interesting portfolio of work.

Flexibility will also be required to attend site work.

At Ramboll, we work to create a sustainable future and our inspiring projects and innovative solutions aim to set the standard among our peers.

Our Ramboll Buildings unit works on more than 10,000 building projects each year. 4,000 experts across the world specialise in creating more innovative, sustainable and liveable buildings.

You will be part of our award-winning and dynamic UK team. You will also be part of a thriving international specialist group of over 100 acousticians in over 12 countries. In the UK, the team operates across four offices (Cambridge, London, Birmingham and Manchester).

We win a third of our work from external clients, with two-thirds providing collaborative acoustic consultancy support to our own environmental, transport and building engineers. We deliver a wide variety of environmental and buildings projects including new schools and hospitals and sustainable places for people to live and work, large scale residential-led masterplans and high-profile landmark buildings in London and beyond.

In previous years our acousticians have worked as far afield as the Falkland Islands.
