The Stantec community unites more than 34,000 employees working in over 450 locations across 6 continents. We have been working with our clients and communities in the UK for over 150 years. We plan, design, deliver and manage the development and infrastructure needed to support the creation of sustainable, healthy and prosperous communities.
Our teams provide effective and relevant solutions, translating our clients’ vision into valued consents, deliverable plans for projects and programmes, and efficient designs for delivery, based on technical excellence and deep market insights. We deal with today’s challenges, but also keep a fairer, better tomorrow in sight, looking at how we deliver clean growth, support radical changes in our economy and meet the needs of future communities.
Join our 2027 Graduate Programme as a Graduate Sustainability Consultant in either our Birmingham, Bristol or London office. As a key member of our team, you will help deliver sustainable projects that benefit communities, the planet and society. You will support a diverse range of organisations - from local authorities and universities to masterplan developers and asset managers - as they develop strategies for decarbonisation and a net-zero future.
As a Graduate Sustainability Consultant, you will play an active role in embedding sustainable design and net-zero strategies across high-profile developments. Working alongside our experienced sustainability leads, you will gain hands-on experience across the entire building and infrastructure lifecycle - translating complex environmental targets into practical, actionable solutions for our clients and project teams.
We are committed to supporting your professional development through a structured progression plan, mentoring and relevant training. Depending on your chosen career pathway, you may work towards professional registration such as Chartered Environmentalist (CEnv), Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Chartered Scientist (CSci), through an appropriate licensed professional body. You may also have opportunities to pursue specialist credentials relevant to sustainable building design and assessment, such as BREEAM Assessor or BREEAM Accredited Professional (BREEAM AP), where these align with your role and project experience.
In this role, your daily work will directly contribute to driving down carbon, enhancing building performance, and creating resilient, future-proofed developments. By guiding clients toward meaningful decarbonisation and net-zero outcomes, you will help leave a lasting positive legacy for urban environments and the communities that use them.
