Discover how their experience enables us to become a trusted environmental services partner for clients across the UK. This time, let's get to know Jayne Trevelyan, Principal Environmental Consultant.

What was your background before joining Adler & Allan?

Before Adler & Allan, I managed a team that delivered due diligence environmental assessments (mainly land contamination but also flood risk and other environmental disciplines) associated with property transactions for UK real estate clients. I enjoyed assisting clients buying and selling all manner of properties and sites and helping to transform and grow a successful environmental transactions team.

How did you become Principal Environmental Consultant at Adler & Allan?

After 17 years at another environmental consultancy, I decided to seek out other opportunities and contacted a great former colleague and consultant, Bryan Cherry. As Bryan had recently set up managing the busy land quality team, it was exceptional timing, and I joined the team in December 2023.

What changes have you seen since being at Adler & Allan?

As I have only been at Adler & Allan a short time, I can’t really say much about changes since I started. However, the land quality team has already seen growth, which I am sure will continue. There have also been positive changes in regard to the systems used and, while possibly not a change, I have been welcomed by colleagues and fully supported by the wider business when appropriate.

What is your biggest achievement to date?

Although I have only been at Adler & Allan a short time, there are several achievements to mention: developing relationships with new clients and colleagues; working on several large, interesting sites and projects; attending the UKREiiF conference, and improving my mental health.

What are you passionate about outside of work?

I like to keep fit by either walking my two small terrier dogs, Sid and Nancy, or running – most of the time on my own, although Sid enjoys a short occasional blast!

I also like crafting, mainly embroidery as I find it relaxing and rewarding when I’ve finished an epic image (the last one took me about 5 years to complete). More recently, I have also dabbled in jewellery making with a group of friends.

What’s next for Jayne in 2024?

All good things! At Adler & Allan, continuing to be part of a fantastic growing team. Outside of work, spending time with friends and family – particularly in my campervan no matter the weather.
