Are you an ambitious and commercially minded Flood Risk Consultant looking to take the next step in your career?
I'm partnering with a well-regarded development consultancy to appoint an Associate who will build and lead a new flood risk service line within an established, growing business.

This is more than a delivery role - it's a genuine opportunity to shape a specialist offering, influence strategy and create long-term value. You'll step into a consultancy with a strong pipeline of developer and property clients, where workload will be generated through supported cross-selling into existing relationships. The platform is there - they want someone who can take ownership and run with it.

The Opportunity

• Establish and grow a flood risk capability within a respected multidisciplinary development consultancy
• Deliver Flood Risk Assessments, drainage strategies and technical advice across a diverse project portfolio
• Work closely with planning, development and technical teams to embed flood risk expertise across schemes
• Convert opportunities from an established client base with full internal support
• Play a key role in shaping future team structure, standards and service direction

What They're Looking For

• Strong technical background in flood risk, drainage or hydraulic modelling within the development sector
• Commercial awareness and experience supporting business growth or service development
• Confidence engaging clients and advising project teams
• Motivation to build, lead and scale a specialist service within a collaborative environment

Why This Role Stands Out

• A rare chance to create and grow a service line with real backing
• Access to an existing client base and cross-selling support from senior leadership
• Performance-related bonuses linked directly to work won and the growth of the service line
• Flexible working and choice of office location
• Clear progression aligned to the consultancy's continued growth

If you're ready to take ownership of something meaningful - and be rewarded for building it - I'd be happy to share more detail confidentially.
