Are you currently performing a leadership role within ecology or are you an experienced Principal or Senior Ecologist looking for a rewarding new role? If so, this is a great opportunity to take on your next challenge within a vibrant consultancy.

Keystone Ecology is a well established independent ecology consultancy that prides itself in providing practical, intelligent and pioneering advice to its clients. With both an Ecology and Habitats division we are well placed to ensure clients can achieve their goals whilst fulfilling their environmental responsibilities.

We are looking for an Ecology Team Leader to join our Cotswolds Head Office team.

In this role, you will be expected to lead the Ecology Team to deliver against the departmental targets, so commercial awareness is key, but you must also be able to demonstrate your technical competence in ensuring all work is delivered to the required professional standards.

You will likely have experience working at a high level within the ecology field, and be able to demonstrate a track record of project management, typically working on large, complex and challenging projects involving multiple protected species.

You will have an area of specialism and you will hold 1 or more survey licenses. It is essential that you are fully conversant with the UK and EU legislation and planning systems with experience of negotiating with regulators. Experience working as an expert witness would be advantageous.
