Role: ESG Consultant

Location: Hersham (hybdring working model available)

Salary: up to 45£K

About you:

You will consult with the board and senior management of new and existing clients to help them to understand and document areas of Environmental, Social and Governance at their company and map their journey to Net Zero. This will be documented in an annual ESG Impact Report and shared with various stakeholder. Post the reporting process, the company is scored and benchmarked against a number of ESG metrics and provided with an annual action plan programme.

You are highly analytical with a solutions-focused approach to solving problems. Other personal traits you have include strong commercial acumen and an ability to see the bigger picture, as well as focus on the details.

A consultative approach is key with our clients, so you'll need to demonstrate your ability to understand their needs and guide them to a solution.

You'll also need strong communication skills because you'll be presenting client workshops and writing compelling reports.

You will:

• Have a passion for ESG and net zero
• Have experience within some areas of ESG, however, it's not necessary to be an industry expert
• Enjoy writing as a consultant as this is a significant part of the role
• Write annual ESG Impact Report's
• Score clients ESG performance
• Recommend targeted actions to achieve a glide path to net zero and other ESG goals

The successful candidate would need to have a proven track record in writing reports/articles to deadlines. This could be in a different field to ESG. This includes:

• Excellent communication skills - both written and verbal.
• Take pride in ensuring all work is accurate and client delivery is of a high standard.
• Build strong trusted relationships with the client's board and senior management team as an ESG consultant

Why you should join:

You'd be joining a leading consultancy who are mission driven and passionate about good people making a difference.
