Founded in Denmark, Ramboll is a foundation-owned people company. We have more than 18,000 experts working across our global operations in 35 countries. Our experts are leaders in their fields, developing and delivering innovative solutions in diverse markets including Buildings, Transport, Planning & Urban Design, Water, Environment & Health, Energy, and Management Consulting. We invite you to contribute to a more sustainable future working in an open, collaborative, and empowering company. Combining local experience with global knowledge, we together shape the societies of tomorrow.
Welcome to our Buildings division
As one of the top 10 building designers in the world, Ramboll provides sustainable design engineering solutions in residential, commercial, office, hospital, stadium, industrial and Infrastructure projects. 4,000 experts across the world specialise in creating more innovative, sustainable and liveable buildings. We place particular emphasis on our liveable buildings concept where we balance the cultural, social and physical values of buildings, to improve the quality of life for building users.
We invite you to demonstrate best practice in sustainable design, early-stage passive analysis, building performance modelling, life cycle assessment and decarbonisation as we look for an enthusiastic and suitably experienced Sustainability Consultant for the Ramboll Engineering Centre located in Gurugram. The role will support concept design, competition projects and multidisciplinary design teams by translating sustainability ambitions into clear, evidence-based strategies and performance-led design recommendations.
You will join our Sustainability Team
Our Sustainability teams have an in-depth focus on technical delivery and an excellent understanding of client care, focused on Low and Net Zero Carbon building design. You will be an essential part of a close-knit team working on a wide variety of projects across the UK and internationally. We have a supporting and collaborative culture and enjoy what we do! We are looking for like-minded and personable colleagues to strengthen the capabilities of our global team and lead our REC team. Career progression is guaranteed for talented candidates.
You will be expected to manage your own project work and support multidisciplinary teams during early design stages, including feasibility studies, competitions and concept design. You should have a strong interest in the overall sustainability scope, including passive design, certification, embodied carbon and operational energy, supported by practical energy simulation experience to assist project teams. Proficiency in Rhino and Grasshopper for parametric design support, working knowledge of IES VE for building performance analysis, and the ability to develop clear outputs that inform design decisions will be important for this role.
We offer a highly supportive environment in which you can develop and grow in your role. For the right candidate there is the opportunity to progress, with increasing management and mentoring responsibilities as you grow in your role.
Job Description
- Be Educated to Masters/ bachelor’s level in Engineering, Architecture or Built Environment and having gained relevant practical experience in a similar role, you have demonstrable knowledge and experience of building physics, particularly in relation to heat transfer, energy, comfort criteria, ASHRAE Guidance and other industry standards (CIBSE beneficial).
- Have demonstrable knowledge and experience of multiple-asset project sustainability and building physics, particularly in relation to thermal comfort, passive design, compliance modelling and real operational energy assessments.
- Support early-stage passive design analysis for concept, feasibility and competition projects, including orientation, massing, shading, façade optimisation, daylight access, thermal comfort and low-energy design strategies.
- Use Rhino and Grasshopper to support parametric sustainability studies, rapid design optioneering, visualisation of performance outcomes and evidence-based design inputs for architects and wider project teams.
- Have in depth-knowledge of dynamic simulation software’s including an understanding of climate-based daylighting analysis, operational energy calculation and life cycle analysis and life cycle costing is highly desirable.
- Undertake life cycle assessment studies covering embodied and operational carbon, preferably using One Click LCA, and prepare clear carbon reduction recommendations, benchmarking outputs and client-facing summaries.
- Given the collaborative and client focused nature of this role, effective communication skills and some experience of using your initiative to overcome challenges are essential.
- Proven experience, or a strong interest, in delivering overall sustainability scope across projects, including sustainability strategies, energy strategies, IES VE energy modelling and assessment support.
