  • Support colleagues with data collection, reporting, and client updates.
  • Keep informed on changes to Building Regulations and best practices.
  • Offer input into technical process improvements and team knowledge sharing.

About You

  • Technically skilled, well-organised, and detail-oriented.
  • A confident communicator, both written and verbal, with clients and colleagues.
  • Professional and approachable, with the ability to clearly explain technical matters.
  • Genuinely passionate about sustainable design and building performance.
  • Comfortable working independently as part of a remote team.

Skills & Experience
