Intermediate-Senior Building Physics Engineer Up to 55k London

A forward-thinking sustainability consultancy is growing its Building Performance capability and is seeking a hands-on Building Physics Engineer to help deliver performance-led, low-carbon design across a diverse portfolio. You'll join a team known for practical decarbonisation advice, net-zero roadmaps and asset-level performance improvements for clients across real estate and development.

The practice is active in the UK's net-zero conversation and contributes to industry guidance on the emerging UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard, with team members engaged in sector events and thought leadership. You'll be part of a consultancy that blends rigorous analytics with clear, client-facing advice.

What you'll do Deliver dynamic thermal simulations and energy modelling (e.g., IES-VE) to inform design decisions and compliance. Undertake overheating assessments (TM52/TM59), operational energy studies (e.g., TM54), and Part L/SAP/SBEM compliance. Produce energy and carbon strategies for planning and concept design, aligning recommendations with net-zero pathways. Translate model outputs into clear, client-ready advice present at design team meetings and stakeholder workshops. Support post-planning/delivery stages (parameter updates, optimisation, POE alignment) to close the "performance gap." Collaborate with ESG/Net Zero specialists and wider sustainability consultants (climate risk, social value, biodiversity) to deliver holistic outcomes.

What you'll bring 4+ years (Intermediate) or 6+ years (Senior) in building physics/energy modelling within consultancy or design teams. Proficiency in IES-VE (or similar), with a track record in thermal/energy modelling and UK compliance. Strong grasp of UK frameworks and guidance (Part L, TM52/54/59 awareness of LETI/GLA helpful). Confident communicator able to challenge and influence design decisions with evidence-based recommendations. A genuine passion for net-zero and whole-life performance, with curiosity to engage in emerging standards and best practice.

Why Join? Be part of a mission-driven consultancy committed to low-carbon, circular and resilient development with tangible client impact. Work alongside recognised ESG & Net Zero specialists on projects that connect strategy to delivery. Opportunities for professional development, thought leadership and cross-disciplinary collaboration. Hybrid working and a supportive culture that values initiative and innovation.

Whether you're working in the larger corporate companies or a small SME this is certainly one to take note of.
