Supporting the delivery of utilities and infrastructure projects, ensuring all consents are in place

Coordinating with surveyors, engineers, ecologists and contractors to facilitate site access

Preparing and issuing notices where required

Maintaining accurate land schedules, records and CRM updates

Contributing to wider consents processes, including elements linked to CPO, DCO and TWAO where relevant

Attending site meetings and representing the project with confidence

Utilities, telecoms, broadband or energy

Property management, estate management or rural surveying

Landowner liaison or stakeholder engagement

Land referencing or permissions work

Exposure to CPO, DCO, TWAO or statutory infrastructure processes (desirable but not essential)
