Environmental Lighting Consultant

This is an exciting opportunity to join a global consultancy that is expanding rapidly throughout the UK. You will work within professional and collaborative teams, all with the same aim of delivering world-class solutions for our clients and the communities around us. On a personal level, you will learn and develop and will have the support to aid your career progression and increase your job satisfaction.

We're looking to build our already successful Infrastructure and Buildings team in the UK and bring in emerging talent to lead our Environmental Lighting Team either from our Reading, Oxford or London office on a full-time basis.

As a member of our lighting community of practice across the business, you will report to the Environmental Team Lead. You will work with multi-disciplinary teams on complex projects, initially focusing on Lighting Impact Assessments across a variety of markets and sectors. There is growing potential for lighting design projects, both in offering solutions to schemes as part of the planning and assessment process and on other projects across all design stages. This forms part of Stantec's "Designing with community in mind" that looks at both the here and now as well aslong term implications of each design as we strive towards sustainable built environment.

While lighting is a specialist field, it can be a very broad discipline. This role offers the chance to demonstrate your expertise in lighting in the context of the planning process, with exposure to the interrelated environmental and planning disciplines and broader lighting teams.

A person with a passion for light and how we use it to enhance human's relationship with the night whilst minimising the negative effects to the surroundings.

Lighting within the built environment is rarely something people set out to enter, if that is you great, equally if lighting is something you've discovered along the way and wish to make your primary focus then this role offers that opportunity. The field of lighting benefits from the experience brought in from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds, architecture, electrical engineering, theatre, product design, highways as examples.

An understanding of the fundamentals of light and experience of collaborative processes is essential.Experience of Lighting Impact Assessments and the planning process is desirable but not mandatory.

Comfortable with the technical and performance-based aspects of lighting alongside the creative and experienced elements.
