What you will be doing:
- Leading on nationally important infrastructure projects, managing project programmes and budgets.
- Collaborating with our multi-disciplinary teams and undertaking stakeholder engagement.
- Planning, co-ordinating and undertaking field surveys, analysing and interpreting survey results using approaches such as biodiversity net gain or natural capital.
- Designing and co-ordinating ecological mitigation.
- Authoring and checking/reviewing a range of ecological reports and licence applications.

About you:
- Ideally, you would have the following qualifications / memberships.

- A degree in ecology or closely related field.
- Demonstrable specialist ecological knowledge, either as a species specialist, or generalist.
