We're working with a well-established, independent environmental consultancy based near Derby. They're growing steadily and are now looking for an Upper Assistant/Consultant Ecologist to join the team.
You'll be working alongside around 40-50 colleagues, including specialists in ecology, arboriculture, archaeology, landscape architecture and construction. It's a collaborative, hands-on team where you'll be supported to do quality work - not rushed through checklists.

Visiting sites, liaising with clients, and supporting senior ecologists
Contributing to project delivery in a way that genuinely values ecological outcomes
What you'll need:
A degree in a relevant subject
Some consultancy experience - the more, the better
A full, clean UK driving licence
Helpful, but not essential:
Bird ID or wider ornithological skills
One or more protected species licences
What's on offer:
£25,000 - £35,000 salary (DOE)
Paid overtime
Company iPhone and laptop
Use of company vehicles for site visits
A full extra week off at Christmas
Flexible working and generous holiday allowance
