Principal Contaminated Land Consultant - Sydney

I'm working with a highly respected environmental consultancy that's known for delivering exceptional outcomes on complex projects. Their success comes from keeping senior technical experts actively involved from day one, building strong client relationships, and maintaining a practical, hands-on approach to consulting.

They're now looking for a Principal Contaminated Land Consultant to join their Sydney team. This is a role for someone who can hit the ground running, leading projects, mentoring staff, and acting as a trusted advisor to clients.

The Opportunity

  • Lead contaminated land and remediation projects from initial planning to close-out
  • Oversee PSI/DSI investigations, remediation action plans, validation reports, and ongoing management plans
  • Apply technical expertise across soil, groundwater, vapour, landfill gas, and hazardous materials assessments
  • Manage budgets, deadlines, and client communications with confidence
  • Mentor and develop junior consultants, fostering both technical skills and professional growth
  • Work closely with senior leadership who remain actively engaged in project delivery

What You'll Need

  • Around 8+ years' experience in contaminated land consulting (Australian market preferred)
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver complex projects to a high technical standard
  • Strong project management, leadership, and mentoring skills
  • Excellent report writing and client communication abilities
  • Relevant tertiary qualifications in environmental science, engineering, geology, or similar
  • CEnvP accreditation (or working towards) highly regarded

Why This Role?

  • Work in a consultancy where leadership is hands-on and accessible
  • Enjoy a variety of projects across different sectors and regions
  • Be part of a collaborative, high-performing team with a reputation for quality
  • Competitive salary and a supportive, flexible working culture

If you're an experienced contaminated land professional looking to step into a leadership role with real impact, I'd love to hear from you.
