Recruitment: Agency Founder (ALRA), Mindset Coach and Podcast Host (The Lone Recruiter), Recruiting Environmental Professionals across Australia for…
* 140k–$180k + super (based on experience)
* Clear path to Principal – this role is designed to stretch and support that step up
* Fortitude Valley or Sunshine Coast base + flexible, hybrid options
The Opportunity
If you're a Senior Environmental Scientist or Planner ready to step into that next level, this is for you.
This role sits within the Infrastructure Advisory team and supports the delivery of Coordinated Projects (SDPWO Act), EPBC referrals and major environmental approvals across a wide mix of sectors:
* Renewables (Wind, Solar, BESS)
* Power and Energy Infrastructure (transmission lines, substations)
* Major Residential Developments
* Transport & TMR-led projects
What You'll Actually Do
You won't be buried in writing here. The juniors are strong writers and carry that load. What's needed is someone to steer the ship - to shape the narrative of major reports, provide strategic oversight, and be a key interface with regulatory bodies.
You'll:
* Guide the direction and structure of environmental approvals and impact assessments
* Be a central contributor to report content without doing the heavy writing
* Mentor juniors and support the broader project delivery team
* Play a client-facing, regulatory liaison role
This isn't just a delivery job, it's about influence, insight, and growth.
The Culture
Now a team of 30, this business has scaled steadily and sustainably. There's a clear strategy in place, and plenty of runway left for further growth.
You'll be surrounded by a mix of technical experts across Environmental Planning, Ecology, Landscape Architecture and GIS. The team is collaborative, capable, and low-ego—people who want to do good work, without the usual corporate grind.
