His responsibilities within the role include: ensuring compliance with legislative and client requirements (i.e. permitting, consents & licensing and client standard specifications); managing and mitigating against all environmental aspects and impacts associated with construction works, such as waste, nuisance, ecology, land contamination, heritage, resource use and pollution control. He is involved in carrying out site audits and inspections in order to maintain and improve environmental quality standards. He aims to promote and encourage best practice on site to reduce environmental impacts and enhance environmental performance (i.e. use of energy saving solutions, innovative site compound set-up to reduce environmental impacts, biodiversity enhancement solutions to increase net-biodiversity gain). He is required to carry out investigations into environmental incidents/near misses in order to discover root causes and provide solutions for improvement. He is also actively involved with the improvement to Volker’s environmental management system through the development of new and existing procedural and control documentation, ensuring that these are communicated effectively to all stakeholders. Fundamentally he provides support and advice to project teams on all aspects associated with the environment and a projects interface with it. He is actively engaged with the client through regular communication and is also experienced with liaising with environmental regulators (i.e. Environment Agency, Natural England, English Heritage, Marine Management Organisation, Local Authorities). He collates environmental/KPI data for reporting to both the client and for internal purposes. He is involved in the delivery of training to project teams through the use of tool box talks and other more technical training requirements.

He undertook research and produced case studies in the use of more sustainable soil stabilisation techniques in collaboration with sub-contractors (Geotech Soil Stabilisation Ltd). This proved to save more than 60% of carbon emissions and waste generation. He undertook further case studies and cost/benefit analysis in the use of battery pods on site for the reduction in carbon emissions.

Also, enhanced his report writing, research, presentation and time management skills. As part of his BSc degree Simon carried out research looking into commitment to change within an SME in relation to the setting up and implementation of an EMS. BS 8555 was utilised to implement a phased implementation. A baseline assessment was carried out and advice offered to the client. Particular attention was given over to phase 1 of BS 8555, including the need to gain and maintain commitment to the EMS. All staff, including upper management, were engaged using formulated interview techniques and questionnaires; the results of which were reported back to the client. A final report was produced giving recommendations and including details to include within the organization’s EMS manual. As a result, the client was able to begin the development of an EMS and hence improve its environmental performance and implement cost saving measures.
