ecological assessments
client support
- Leading, planning and co-ordinating field surveys, analysing and interpreting survey results and planning and co-ordinating ecological mitigation works.
- There is also a degree of flexibility over which facets of the role you become most invested in: be it a more technical focus; project management; developing bids and tenders; or a more generalist role.
- You will be involved in team leadership, managing the technical work of more junior staff and sub-consultants and (depending on experience) managing projects and their direction too.
- Your role will involve working closely with project management to ensure implementation of ecological assessments, through the coordination of associated surveys, consultation with third parties and regulators and identification of mitigation in support of our client proposals and operations.

multi-tasking
- In depth knowledge of UK and EU Wildlife Legislation, planning policies, licensing requirements and best practice survey techniques.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; be able to produce meticulous and accurate technical reports as well as communicate confidently with a variety of clients and stakeholders.
- Whilst fieldwork skills are needed for this role, there will be a large component of office-based coordination, data analysis, client contact and report writing.
- A self-starter, as you’ll be part of a small, busy team. Excellent team working skills are therefore essential together with strong communication skills, sound understanding of ecological impact assessment and a close attention to detail.
- Capable of undertaking Ecological Impact Assessments and contributing to Habitats Regulations Assessments.
- Be organised with proven ability to multi-task and handle several projects simultaneously.
- Demonstrable specialist knowledge in either fisheries, macroinvertebrate or macrophyte ecology preferable.
