Newcastle, Australia Ramboll Full time

Inviting bright minds

An opportunity exists for a Senior Environmental Scientist/Planner to join the Ramboll Newcastle team to further develop their career in our busy and growing Impact Assessment Team.

Do you want to push the boundaries of your profession and develop your excellence in an open, collaborative and empowering culture? We work to create a sustainable future and our inspiring projects and innovative solutions strive to set the standard among our peers. You will join a global company that has been growing successfully since its founding in 1945. Together, we lead and leave a positive impact on societies, companies and people around the world.

About you

As part of Ramboll you will work with a group of experienced, enthusiastic consultants in our Environment and Health team in Newcastle. You will have the opportunity to work on, and lead, environmental impact assessment and management for a variety of projects.

You will be:

  • values driven
  • performance and deadline driven
  • focussed on the safety of yourself and others
  • a strong leader and great communicator who is energised by challenge, complexity and change
  • collaborative, inclusive and emotionally intelligent.

We are after someone with experience in undertaking and leading the environmental impact assessments required to facilitate the approval of developments that enhance the sustainability of our society. You will become part of our growing Impact Assessment team, focussing on environmental assessments and statutory approvals for a broad range of significant infrastructure and renewable energy projects throughout New South Wales and Australia.

Collaboration and empowerment are a real part of how we work day-to-day. We can offer genuine opportunities to integrate across teams and borders, and to be involved in projects both interstate and internationally with our offices in the Nordics and Europe, North America, Middle East, and the Asia Pacific Region (including Australia). We offer all the benefits of working for a large global consultancy, a competitive salary that will be negotiated with the successful candidate, flexible working arrangements and real opportunities to further develop your career and to be an integral part of our business strategy planning for future growth.

Your starting point for constant growth

From the moment you join Ramboll, we will support your continued personal and professional development so that you grow with the company. For this role, we believe your starting points are:

  • Bachelor’s degree in environmental science, environmental planning and/ or town planning
  • 5 to 10 years’ experience in environmental impact assessment across varied market sectors in the NSW environmental planning process
  • demonstrated experience leading the delivery of environmental impact assessment projects
  • a strong team player with a passion for collaboration and positive attitude
  • a commitment to support the growth of those members of the impact assessment team in the early stages of their career
  • some experience or a willingness to learn the skills required to develop and build client relationships, to facilitate the continued growth of our Impact Assessment team, the Newcastle Office and the Ramboll brand in Australia
  • excellent verbal and written skills
  • demonstrated experience in the management of timelines, quality and budgets
  • a willingness to work with and support other teams to deliver services outside of typical impact assessment services as workload requires
  • full drivers’ licence
  • a willingness to travel (local, national and international) for project delivery.
