Institute team grows to support bid success

The Institute, working with Acre Resources, has been recruiting for several newly-created permanent posts to support a range of high profile projects and to lead corporate functions.

“We have been very successful in securing a number of large and exciting demonstration projects over the past six months and therefore need to grow our team to support delivery,” explains Ian Short, CEO of the Institute.

“We are close to filling a number of permanent positions and are now concentrating on creating an associate panel of sustainability experts.  We are offering a range of unique opportunities for individuals who want to work on challenging and rewarding projects at the cutting edge of sustainability.”

• Sustainable transport and logistics including freight telematics, multi-modal transport solutions, last mile logistics, renewable and sustainable river transport
