Perth, Australia WSP Australia Full time

**About us**

**The opportunity**

Our Western Australia Urban Planning and Environmental Science team works closely with clients to assist the planning, delivery and operation of major infrastructure in the transport, water, power/renewables and resources sectors.

As we're looking to grow our WA presence, two new opportunities have been created for an experienced **Environmental Consultant **and a **(Senior) Planner**.

The location is hybrid between our **Perth office and WFH** (if desired).

As a **Planner**, you will support strategic and statutory planning projects of varying complexity, including land use planning, policy and strategy development, planning approvals delivery and assessment, master planning and place plans, preparation of planning controls and infrastructure contributions.

The combined team works on all project stages; from feasibility studies, to securing planning, development and environmental approvals and subsequent post-approvals management plans and advice to designers and your clients.

Some examples of the key areas you will work within include:

- ** Renewable energy** - engagement, research and analysis to improve renewable energy outcomes
- ** Water utility infrastructure** - assessment, approvals and environmental management for major water utility clients
- ** Business cases** - review of project options and assessment of preferred options to inform decision-making
- ** Corridor assessments** - review of environmental and planning matters, identification and assessment of options
- ** Environmental assessments** - preparation of small to large environmental impact assessments, coordination of technical assessments, authoring of documents, integrating with multi-disciplinary teams.

**What we'll love about you**

You have experience in planning and/or environmental approvals, and you’re passionate about maintaining and creating liveable urban and regional communities.

You ideally have experience in primary authoring of Environmental Impact Assessments, Native Vegetation Clearing Permits and/or EPBC Referrals and Approvals.

In addition, you bring the following skills and attributes:

- Good understanding of WA environmental assessment, approvals and management framework
- Knowledge of Environmental Protection Act and EPBC Act applicable to the power/renewable, water, transport, and construction sectors
- Some project coordination experience, particularly with approvals pathway planning and the coordination of specialists on environmental impact assessment/planning approval projects
- Ability to distil complex information, think strategically and translate that thinking into practical solutions
- A desire to build your brand in the Perth/ WA market whilst working with a national team
- Tertiary qualifications in environmental science, urban planning or similar disciplines

**What we will offer you**

At WSP we provide a diverse and inclusive work environment and offer many personal and professional development opportunities that are aimed to help you deliver your best self to the role whilst managing your personal life in balance. We have been recognised for the second consecutive year as a Great Place to Work® with year-on-year increases in employee engagement.

Some of the many benefits of joining us as a graduate include:

- Flexible working hours and working from home
- Professional and technical development opportunities
- Training in project management, proposal writing, client centricity, monthly webinars on soft skills
- Strong network of young professionals
- Mentor/Buddy programs
