Job Description
Acoustic Consultant
Winchester
-32,000 - -40,000 per annum
My client is a small, growing environmental consultancy in Winchester. They specialise in planning-led noise and vibration, air quality, odour and daylight assessments, advising architects, planning consultants and developers. They are now expanding the acoustics team.
This is not a role where you disappear into a large team. You''ll own your projects from the first client call to the final report, and you''ll see your work help schemes get planning permission. Because noise assessments sit alongside other environmental disciplines, you''ll also pick up skills most acousticians never get the chance to build.
The role
- Lead noise surveys, impact assessments and planning reports
- Apply BS 4142, BS 8233 and relevant planning guidance
- Manage projects and talk directly to clients and project teams
- Work with colleagues on air quality, daylight and wider environmental work
- Help shape how the acoustics offer grows
You''ll need
- At least 1 year of acoustic consultancy experience
- Proven experience writing assessments and reports independently
- Working knowledge of BS 4142 and BS 8233
- A full UK driving licence for site visits
- The right to work in the UK
- To live within easy reach of Hampshire
Commercial or planning-sector exposure, modelling software experience (such as CadnaA) and IOA membership are all useful but not essential.
What you''ll get
- A competitive salary, (-32,000 - -40,000 per annum) based on your experience
- Hybrid working considered
- Exposure to a wider range of environmental disciplines
- A small, friendly team that listens to your ideas
- Real progression as the business grows
Whether you''re an Acoustic Consultant ready for more autonomy or a Senior Consultant who wants a broader, more influential role, this one is worth a conversation. It would suit anyone based around Winchester, Reading, Newbury and surrounding areas.
