Overview
Salary: £28-38k + benefits
Location: Work from home (UK: England and Wales)
Hours: Full or part-time
Duration: Full or part-time
This role is home-based, although you’re welcome in the office as much as you like, and would be ideally suited to a consultant ecologist that wants to help drive the delivery of protected species and BNG consultancy services to clients, including surveys, assessments and advice.
We envisage you bringing energy, enthusiasm and attention to detail to our clients’ projects. You will have a well-developed “learning” mindset and enjoy the challenge of bringing out the best in yourself and others. You relish your duty to balance the competing demands of advancing our client’s development ambitions with the stewardship of the next generation’s natural capital.
Our ecology consultancy division is overseen by a team of principal ecologists, each with their own specialisms: BNG, herpetofauna, bats, PEA, HRA and River Condition Assessment. Whether your strengths overlap with these specialisms, or they represent gaps in your skills and a training opportunity, if you’re a committed ecologist and great fun to be around then we want to hear from you.
Essential technical skills:
This role will suit you well if you can demonstrate one (ideally, two) or more years’ experience of independently undertaking a broad range of assessments for protected species. However, it is essential for this role that you have a solid grasp of preliminary ecological assessment and are confident using UK Habs. While full training can be given, the ability to use QGIS, undertake BNG assessments and produce management plans is advantageous.
Essential (non-technical) skills:
- Exceptionally well organised
- Great communicator
- Social and outgoing
- Proactively seeks feedback
- Hungry to learn and progress
