Requirements

We are looking for a candidate with ecological consultancy experience, to include field surveys (habitat survey experience is essential), project management and reporting.

Good interpersonal skills are essential as the role will work closely with clients and colleagues. The ability to work independently is also essential as the role will be home-based, although you will be joining a supportive culture that emphasises collaboration with colleagues.

A valid CSCS card and protected species survey licences would be an advantage, but are not essential. A full UK driving licence is essential.
