As a key member of Global Sustainability, you will be responsible for managing strategic consenting processes and timely consent renewals to support a consistent approach to our environmental management and drive for excellence in environmental performance.

Key accountabilities include:

• Managing resource consent applications and policy projects, including consultants who support these.
