Job Description

Senior Ecologist – (Glasgow OR Edinburgh)


Not all ecology roles are created equal. This one stands out.


Our client, a trusted consultancy with decades of success across renewables, infrastructure, and nature-positive development, has asked us exclusively to find their next Senior Ecologist.


If you’re ready to step into a role where your expertise isn’t just noted but acted on, this is it.


The package:

  • £40k–£45k DOE + tailored benefits
  • 35-hour working week + 2 days remote
  • 25+ days holiday (with bank holiday flexibility)
  • Annual salary reviews + funded training
  • Pension up to 8%, subscriptions paid, wellbeing support, volunteer days & more


The work:

  • Lead habitat & species surveys across high-profile Scottish projects
  • Produce ecological reports that influence outcomes, not just tick boxes
  • Manage projects end-to-end while shaping major schemes
  • Engage regulators, clients & contractors to achieve better results
  • Mentor juniors & build your leadership profile


We’re looking for:

  • 4+ years consultancy experience + solid grasp of UK ecology legislation
  • Skilled in surveys (bats / mammals / GCN / botany etc.) and HRA / EcIA / EIA
  • Confident communicator with persuasive reporting skills


Why this consultancy?

Because they do things properly. No box-ticking, no burnout culture. Just high-quality projects, a supportive team, and the chance to make your mark.
