Job description
Senior / Principal Acoustics Consultant
Up to £60,000 + Bonus (DOE)
Northern UK | Remote initially (Manchester or Leeds office longer term)
We’re working with a well-established, multi-disciplinary acoustics consultancy to recruit an Acoustics Consultant at Senior or early Principal level to support their expansion in the North.
This role is deliberately flexible on level — the key is a solid technical background and the ambition to step into something with more ownership over time.
Why this role stands out
This isn’t about stepping into a rigid structure — it’s an opportunity to help shape a new regional presence, with the backing of a successful, established consultancy. The long-term plan is to build a team around the right person, with flexibility on location (Manchester or Leeds).
The Role
Deliver a range of acoustics, noise, and vibration projects
Carry out site work across the Midlands, North West, and occasionally Scotland
Build relationships with clients and act as a trusted advisor
Take ownership of projects from start to finish
Contribute to the growth of a Northern team with support
Support and mentor others as the team develops
✅ What We’re Looking For
Experience in acoustics, noise, or vibration consultancy
A hands-on consultant who enjoys site-based work
Comfortable working with clients and managing projects
Either an established Senior ready for more responsibility, or someone already operating at or close to Principal level
Interest in growing into leadership over time
Strong communication skills and a practical approach
The Opportunity
Help build and shape a regional team
Progress naturally into a leadership role over time
Work with a consultancy that offers autonomy without risk, with full backing and support
Benefits
Competitive salary and monthly bonus
8% employer pension
Professional memberships paid
Company expenses covered with no out-of-pocket costs
Wellbeing support and additional benefits
Travel to London and team meetings fully expensed
Working Pattern
Remote initially
Future hybrid working from a Manchester or Leeds office depending on location
Occasional travel to London
If you’re a strong acoustics consultant who wants more ownership, progression, and the chance to build something, this is well worth a conversation.
