Sustainability is no longer a reporting exercise – it's a critical part of how major infrastructure and construction projects are delivered. At Kilnbridge, we're looking for a passionate and experienced Lead Sustainability Advisor who wants to make a genuine impact across some of the UK's most significant and technically challenging projects.

This is a highly visible role where you'll influence project teams, engage directly with clients and stakeholders, and help shape the environmental and social legacy of our work. You'll be at the forefront of driving carbon reduction, resource efficiency, circular economy principles and meaningful social value outcomes, helping ensure sustainability is embedded from planning through to project delivery.

Working closely with our Head of Sustainability and senior operational teams, you'll provide expert guidance across multiple projects, champion best practice and play a key role in delivering Kilnbridge's sustainability ambitions.

If you're looking for a role where you can influence decisions, build relationships, drive change and leave a positive legacy on projects, communities and the environment, we'd love to hear from you.
