ABOUT
Dr. Rosalie Constable
I am a technical and strategic leader who helps energy, mining and infrastructure organisations with programme delivery, strategic risk and environmental decision‑making in complex technical and regulated settings.
I combine experience in upstream geoscience, asset management and project delivery with ESG, climate and emissions advisory, so the strategies, frameworks and decisions I support are grounded in how projects really operate and stand up to scrutiny from boards, regulators and investors.
HOW I WORK
I work at the point where technical complexity, environmental risk, governance and delivery pressures meet. My role is often to bring structure, judgement and clear decision support to projects that involve uncertainty, multiple stakeholders and a high level of scrutiny.
I am particularly effective where organisations need someone who can connect technical teams, project delivery, leadership priorities and external expectations, without losing sight of what is practical on the ground.
WHERE I ADD VALUE
I support clients across energy, mining and infrastructure on work that includes:
-
Programme and project delivery support for technically complex or high-risk workstreams
-
Strategic risk and uncertainty assessment for assets, portfolios and investment decisions
-
Technical assurance, review and decision-ready input for boards, investors and senior leadership
-
Climate, nature and ESG input where these are material to project performance, compliance or long-term value
-
Asset lifecycle thinking across development, operations, transition and decommissioning
HOW I THINK ABOUT ENVIRONMENT, CLIMATE AND NATURE RISK
I do not see climate and nature as separate from “core” project and business decisions. They increasingly shape strategy, capital allocation, programme delivery risk and licence to operate.
For work to be useful, environmental and sustainability thinking has to be grounded in operational and technical reality. It needs to recognise where the real risks sit, what can genuinely be influenced, and where organisations are exposed to longer‑term transition, disclosure and nature‑related pressures.
In practice, that means joining up evidence from operations, engineering, subsurface and environmental constraints with climate and nature frameworks, rather than treating them as separate workstreams. My role is often to make that picture coherent and decision‑ready for programmes, portfolios and governance processes.
TESTIMONIAL
"I had the privilege of working closely with Rosalie over a period of 8 years, initially based in New Zealand and subsequently based in Austria. Rosalie is a talented, experienced and highly motivated geoscientist who takes pride in all aspects of her work. She is a pleasure to work beside, and is a valuable team player.
I later had the privilege of being Rosalie’s line manager during a period of high activity for our company. Rosalie was a team leader at that time, and proved herself to be a highly organised project manager who never failed to deliver quality according to timelines, scope, budget and deliverables. Her strength as a project manager comes from her ability to combine her highly organised nature with her specialist geological skills and strong background in sedimentology, geochemistry, geophysics, structural geology, seismic interpretation and play fairway analysis.
I have no hesitation in recommending Rosalie, and will welcome any questions from prospective employers."

EXPERIENCE & BACKGROUND
My background includes senior roles in upstream energy, asset management and technical leadership, as well as advisory work across ESG, climate, emissions and nature-related risk. That combination allows me to bring both technical credibility and strategic perspective to complex projects and decisions.
I have worked with asset owners, operators, investors and advisory teams across energy, mining and infrastructure, including work connected to emissions, decommissioning, CCS, offshore wind, supply chains and broader transition-related projects.
Professional background:
PhD in Earth Sciences, technical leadership in energy and asset management, ISO 14064 training in greenhouse gas inventories and projects, and ongoing professional development in transition engineering, climate risk, biodiversity and nature-related disclosure.
HOW I WORK WITH ORGANISATIONS
I work best where organisations need someone who can move confidently between technical detail and strategic decision-making without losing sight of either.
That might mean:
-
Leading or supporting complex projects where environmental, climate and nature-related issues need to be integrated into wider programme and asset decisions
-
Providing technically credible input to governance, disclosure, due diligence or strategic review processes
-
Acting as a bridge between external specialists and the business, making environmental, biodiversity and risk workstreams coherent, decision-useful and aligned with operational, financial and regulatory realities
A consistent theme in my work is helping different parts of an organisation understand each other better, whether that means working across technical teams, ESG leads, finance teams, executive leadership or boards.
WHERE I'M BASED
I’m based near Cambridge in the UK and work with clients and teams across the world, often in hybrid or remote arrangements.
If your organisation needs rigorous, grounded support on programme delivery, strategic risk, environmental decision-making or asset transition challenges, I’d be glad to discuss where I might help.
