What Recruiters Look For

Environmental Engineer CVs must show your Chartered status (CEnv), EIA experience, and specialist area. Include the types and scale of projects and your regulatory knowledge (EA, SEPA, DEFRA).

Key Skills to Include

CEnv (CIWEM/SiLC), EIA, contaminated land (Phase I/II), flood risk assessment, GIS (QGIS/ArcGIS), remediation design, SEPA/EA regulations, and drainage strategy.

Common Mistakes

Not specifying the project types and scale. Offshore wind EIA and residential brownfield remediation require very different expertise. State project values and types clearly.

Formatting Tips

One to two pages. Lead with CEnv status and specialist area. Include a Key Projects section listing project type, client sector, and your specific contributions.
