Environment auditor

Professional engaged in the audit of industrial facilities and providing recommendations on ways to reduce the environmental footprint through industrial upgrades or by changing operating practices and methods.This is a relevant and quite an old job existing in Russia since 1993.In 2005, the National Environmental Audit Chamber was established to carry out independent environmental audits, issue accreditations to environmental audit firms, and train environmental auditors.However, the practically non-existent legal framework and the non-transparent environmental policies of businesses do not encourage experience sharing between specialists and are holding back the sector’s development.Nevertheless, demand for these specialists is increasing.
