Sustainability Consultant

We're looking for an experienced Sustainability Consultant to join the team at Enistic, working on a diverse portfolio of client projects spanning carbon reporting, energy analysis, and ESG strategy. This is primarily a desk-based role — the majority of your time will be spent on data analysis, modelling, and producing high-quality written reports and calculations. You'll occasionally be required to carry out energy audits at smaller client sites, but the core of the role is analytical and report-driven.

You'll take ownership of larger, more complex projects and help raise the bar for quality across the team.
