Key responsibilities will include managing environmental impact assessments, planning approvals, environmental management plans, compliance audits and supporting technical studies. You will prepare and review reports, scopes, proposals and project documentation; coordinate internal and external specialists; monitor budgets, schedules, risks and deliverables; and provide clear, practical advice on environmental constraints and opportunities.
