Environmental Management (Sustainable Development) Andrew Wilson

About Me Graduated from UQ in 2010 with a Bachelor of Environmental Management majoring in Sustainable Development First worked in local government, then for a number of consulting firms, and then started my own consulting firm– Sorus Group – in March 2014 Specialise in corporate sustainability, carbon, and energy management This means helping business to reduce their environmental impact while also saving money

Why I studied Env. Man. Interested in this field through studying Geography at High School Originally wanted to study planning but changed my mind at the last minute! Drawn to the degree by the open ended nature of the career opportunities and broad range of topics covered in the curriculum – you can choose the path you want to go down Strong interest in the natural environment through my hobbies A chance to positively contribute to global issues

Degree highlights – field trip A week in North Queensland learning first hand about sustainable development issues in the region – lots of fun!

Degree highlights – group project Our group looked at the opportunities for renewable energy at Tangalooma resort on Moreton Island Included two trips to stay and research at Tangalooma Great experience to prepare you for working in teams in the real world after finishing uni

Degree highlights – placement Three months full time internship – the most valuable part of the degree. I worked with Redland City Council who then kept me on as a paid employee while I finished uni. The experience kick-started my career.

My job Highly diverse work – often driven by changing legislation and business priorities Get to work both at the planning and strategic level as well as on-ground projects Lots of problem solving involved – technical skills only half the equation and being able to see things from multiple angles is the key Get to lead teams and achieve great outcomes – not just writing reports Domestic and international travel opportunities – particular demand in developing countries

My job - projects Seven weeks in Africa designing an energy efficiency program for Rio Tinto Car
