Managing Consultant - Low Carbon Fuels & Chemicals (Mid-Senior Level)

Senior or Principal Consultant in Low Carbon Fuels & Chemicals, UK-based

Since 1997 E4tech has been supporting the global transition to sustainable energy and resources. We work with companies, governments and investors to guide strategy, policy and investment decisions locally and globally. Our strong track record in providing strategic business and policy advice is backed up by deep technical knowledge. E4tech's clients call on us for strategy development and business planning, market and competitor analysis, techno-economic and life-cycle GHG analysis, due diligence support, policy analysis and development.

In May 2021 E4tech became part of ERM, the leading global sustainability consultancy, enabling us to provide a wider offering to clients worldwide. Together with Element Energy, who also became part of ERM in 2021, we have formed a team of over 150 experts in sustainable energy, working globally as part of the ERM Group.

As the climate change agenda and global interest in the energy transition and a more renewable and circular economy escalate, we are seeing an unprecedented increase in requests for support from organisations trying to understand how to play their part.

The role

Continued growth in work related to low carbon fuels & chemicals means that we plan to expand our team in this area, focusing on experienced candidates. The successful candidate(s) will participate in a wide variety of project work and activities in this area, and will also have the opportunity to contribute to projects across sustainable energy more broadly.

Your responsibilities and activities will primarily include:

• Participating in and managing projects on all aspects of low carbon fuels and chemicals, including techno-economic modelling of supply chains, pre-feasibility studies and supply chain formation, technical and commercial due diligence, and markets, sustainability and policies analyses;
• Identifying new business opportunities;
• Participating in or leading proposal writing;
• Communicating with clients on project and business development matters;
• Contributing to the development and implementation of consulting market strategies, including thought leadership on the evolution of low carbon fuels and chemicals;
• Line management is likely to form part of your duties, though not necessarily from day one;
• Contributing to internal and external communication activities, including participation in conferences.

There will be opportunities to develop and apply strategy, project management, business development and team leadership skills. You will join a high calibre team working from one of our UK offices (most of the team is London-based). There will be frequent interaction with our international teams and with clients at a range of locations globally, though most of our work is office, not client-based.

We offer a collegiate working culture, a competitive salary, and a diverse and interesting environment at the cutting edge of sustainable energy and resources. Salary and grade will be based upon experience.
