AQUAFACT (part of the APEM Group) is looking for a Senior Marine Consultant to join our team of specialists in marine science and environmental consultancy. We deliver evidence-based solutions that help clients balance development with protecting marine ecosystems.
As Senior Marine Consultant, you will play a leading role in the delivery of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), Appropriate Assessment (AA), Natura Impact Statement (NIS), Marine Usage Licence (MUL) applications and Dumping at Sea (DaS) applications across projects in offshore energy, ports and harbours, aquaculture, and coastal developments. You will take ownership of technical report writing and review, ensuring reports are delivered to the highest standard and provide evidence-based advice to clients. From the early scoping stages through to completion, you will liaise with regulators, engineers, stakeholders, and project partners, ensuring effective communication throughout the project lifecycle.
Alongside technical work, you will contribute to tendering, proposals, and budget management, helping secure and deliver projects that support sustainable marine development. You will also play a key role in mentoring and supporting junior colleagues, helping to grow skills and capacity within the consultancy team (including personal development).

- Minimum 12-months experience working within a planning, government or environmental consultancy
- Demonstrated experience delivering EIA and AA reporting (including NIS)
- Strong technical report writing skills (desktop studies, literature reviews)
- Good working knowledge of Irish and EU wildlife and planning legislation e.g. Habitats Directive, WFD, MSFD, Marine Usage Licence, aquaculture licence, Dumping at Sea licence
- Excellent organisational skills, initiative, and the ability to manage multiple projects
- Strong communication skills for client and stakeholder engagement
- GIS experience
What helps you stand out:
- Master's/PhD in a relevant field
- Project management experience (budgeting, scheduling, tendering)
- Marine monitoring or environmental data analysis skills
- Professional membership (e.g., CIEEM) or working towards chartership
- Experience mentoring or leading small teams
- Strong commercial awareness and business acumen

We value integrity, quality, collaboration, and forward thinking, and we're committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.
