About the Role

Are you a passionate ESG or Sustainability Specialist looking to lead meaningful change within a high-impact, critical logistics environment?

We are partnering with a major national supply chain specialist to recruit a Sustainability Lead. In this hybrid strategic-and-hands-on role, you will own the end-to-end creation, development, and delivery of the business's Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) roadmap across their UK network.

Key Responsibilities

ESG Strategy: Develop and drive the implementation of the UK ESG roadmap, ensuring alignment with corporate goals and industry best practices.
Audit & Compliance: Oversee and manage audits for ISO 14001 and waste licensing, ensuring full regulatory compliance across operations.
Culture & Engagement: Build, train, and manage a network of site-level sustainability champions to embed environmental awareness throughout the company culture.
Reporting & Data: Collate, analyse, and report on key ESG metrics, preparing the annual UK ESG report and targeting high benchmark standards (e.g., EcoVadis).
Project & Supplier Management: Lead innovative sustainability initiatives, evaluate supplier ESG compliance, and drive continuous environmental improvement.

What We Are Looking For

Proven Experience: Demonstrable background in a dedicated Sustainability, ESG, or CSR role.
Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of ESG frameworks, environmental legislation, waste licensing, and systems like ISO 14001.
Data & Analytics: Proficiency in data analysis, report writing, and financial modeling for sustainability projects.
Soft Skills: Influential communicator, self-motivated, and adept at inspiring multi-site operational teams.
Mobility: Full clean UK driving license with willingness to travel nationally across UK sites as required.

What's On Offer?

Competitive Salary: £30,000 per annum plus car allowance
Work-Life Balance: 33 days annual leave (including bank holidays) + No weekend or bank holiday work
Financial Perks: Holiday purchase scheme, flexible earned-wage access, and up to 5% employer pension match
Health & Wellbeing: 24/7 virtual GP access, physiotherapy, counselling (EAP), healthcare cash plan, and discounted gym memberships
Additional Benefits: Life Assurance, Cycle to Work scheme, and employee discount portal
