Who We Are

We are a small family business, established in late 2019, and led by our co-founder, Dr Jeff Evans.  In hindsight, perhaps this was not the best time to start a new business! But it is certainly an early testament to RCM and our strong start to life that our business managed to come through the affects of the Pandemic that ensued us from March 2020 - just 4 months from our inception.

RCM are also part of a small network of local consultants who work together to provide capacity, contingency and expertise for projects, whenever needed. This means that our clients are always assured of the best possible attention and outcomes at all times, irrespective of the project size.

We operate as a niche area consultancy aimed at providing best-in-market value-for-money technical services to support both local authority and private sector clients in successfully delivering their resources, waste and carbon management projects.

We realise that the key to our own success is by always providing the best possible customer service. Clients who are pleased with our work ask us back and tell others about us. Therefore, we pay great attention and dedication in always delivering the highest level of customer care.

Our values of integrity, best practice and value-for-money are enshrined in what we do and how we do it.  Jeff oversees all stages of RCM projects from proposal to inception and through to completion: he has been commissioned and has successfully delivered technical support on projects for individual clients requiring up to 6-figure value consultancy fees. Hence, demonstrating high-level capability resulting in a  successful track record of delivery for major projects in this sector.

Expert Delivery

Dr Jeff Evans runs an initial assessment over all our potential resource & carbon management projects with respect to viability and moreover if we can deliver outputs that will benefit our clients that are over and above the costs of our services.  Otherwise why appoint us?  This is our focus. 100% of the time.  Rebecca Evans is responsible for all HR advisory project work undertaken by RCM.

Best Practice

We will always make our clients aware of best practice as applied to the expert advice we provide.

Cost Efficient Consultancy

RCM provides its clients with the best possible advice at a fraction of the cost for the same service from a large consultancy.  This means our clients benefit from both the successful delivery of projects whilst also saving money on their advisory services - a 'win-win' opportunity.

Partnership Working

RCM values include working with like-minded clever people in the pursuit of improving and saving our planet.  These people add capacity to our service delivery capability and contingency.  And provide the peace of mind in always getting the job done.

Like RCM, these people have never been driven simply by money but instead their interest in the best outcomes for all of us now and those generations to come. Implicitly this includes sustaining all our natural capital that makes this planet so beautiful.

RCM only work in partnership with other companies with this ethos and these basic values who are, like us, experts in their field.  This means our clients always receive the best possible advice founded on advocating best practice and helping to minimise their impacts on their activities on the environment.

During the last 20 years, Jeff has divided his time working in both the public and private sector which means he has a good understanding of how each function.

He has worked as York & North Yorkshire Waste Partnership Manager supporting nine local authorities; Sustainability Group Leader for Barnsley MB Council; and Principal Environmental Sustainability Officer at the East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

Jeff’s private sector consultancy experience includes being an Associate Director for the Waste, Energy and Carbon Management division at Waterman plc.  And most recently, he spent 5 years as an Associate at WYG group plc in a team leader role for Waste & Resources Management  within their Environmental Services division.
