Depending on your area of expertise, you'll be scoping, designing, and delivering impactful programmes of work which relate to your specific area. You'll have the opportunity to lead the way, helping us shape our strategy by creating state-of-the-art solutions to address the key challenges we face as a country in achieving net zero.

You'll join a culture of transformation, collaborating with large scale public and private organisations to embed innovation in our high impact major projects to support their transition to zero carbon. To help us continue to help the sector unlock its potential to find a way forward, you'll always be keeping an eye on what's coming through future, foresight, and horizon scanning.
