This year 15 of the country’s finest firms have battled it out to be the recognised leader in their field.

The awards, which are chosen through a third party administered poll, aim to find out which of the leading consultancies active in the environmental sector are considered the best at what they do, both by their customers and colleagues working in their field.

It looks at overall reputation as well as breaking it down for in-depth sector-by-sector analysis.
