Construction Companies and Developers
Nowadays, environmental consultants are becoming more and more involved in construction projects, from pre-construction environmental impact assessments, right through to completion.

Environmental issues sometimes only become apparent during the project, so you may find that these companies are desperate to find the right company in order to avoid delays that would cost them dearly.

The best way to get into this lucrative niche is to get to know other consultants such as project managers, engineers, architects, and quantity surveyors, not to mention developers and construction companies and offer your business services to them.

Private Individuals
Many private individuals are becoming more aware of the environmental impact their lifestyle is having on the earth.

Whichever area you choose to focus on in your environmental consulting practice, you will find that the demand for this type of service has grown significantly, and well run, expert environmental consulting firms should have no trouble finding plenty of work and profitable contracts.
