B

Graduate Acoustic Consultant

Bedford
Full-time
On-site
Bedford, Bedfordshire
£26,000 - £26,000 GBP yearly
Ready to turn your love of physics, maths, or acoustics into a career that gets you out of the classroom and into the real world?

We’re on the lookout for a bright, enthusiastic graduate to join our clients acoustic consultancy team — and no, this isn’t a desk-bound, number-crunching-only kind of job (unless you want it to be sometimes).

🔊 What You’ll Be Doing

From day one, you’ll get hands-on experience in the fascinating world of sound. Think:

* Heading out on site to carry out real-world noise surveys

* Testing sound insulation in brand-new buildings

* Building 3D noise models (yes, it’s as cool as it sounds)

* Turning your findings into professional reports

* Visiting projects across rural, urban and industrial locations throughout the UK

One week you could be measuring environmental noise in the countryside. The next? Working on a major city-centre development.

🚀 Big Projects. Real Impact.

As you grow, you won’t just assist — you’ll lead.

You’ll manage projects from start to finish and collaborate with some of the UK’s top architects, engineers, developers and construction teams. We work on high-profile, landmark developments — including some of the most iconic residential buildings in Europe.

You won’t just observe great projects. You’ll help shape how they sound.

🌱 What We’re Looking For

* A degree in Acoustics or a closely related subject (Maths, Physics, Engineering, Music Technology, etc.)

* Strong A-Levels in maths and science

* A friendly, confident personality — someone who can talk just as comfortably with clients as with colleagues

* A driving licence and access to a car (or close to getting one)

If you’re curious, practical, and enjoy both problem-solving and people-facing work, you’ll fit right in.

🎓 Support & Development

You won’t be thrown in at the deep end. You’ll receive:

* One-to-one mentoring

* Structured training within an experienced consultancy team

* Clear progression towards managing your own projects

🏡 Hybrid Working

After successfully completing your probationary period, you’ll have the flexibility of hybrid working, with a typical pattern of two days per week in the office and the remainder working from home or on site, depending on project needs.

💼 The Perks (and the Fun Stuff)

* Competitive salary

* Group bonus scheme

* Private health insurance

* Discounted gym membership

* Cycle to Work scheme

* Salary sacrifice pension

* Casual Fridays

* Regular social events — including team running club and our much-loved curry club

We work hard, support each other, and make sure there’s plenty of opportunity to unwind together too.

If you’re ready for a career that blends science, technology, travel, teamwork and real-world impact — and you like the idea of literally shaping the soundscape of modern buildings — this could be the perfect start
