Principal Botanist - Midlands / M1 Corridor
£45,000 - £55,000
A respected ecological consultancy is looking for a Principal Botanist. This role is for someone who can combine scientific expertise with practical field expertise - someone as comfortable mentoring a team as they are identifying indicator species in a meadow.
What you'll need:
FISC Level 4 - a must for this role, reflecting your depth of botanical knowledge.
Extensive field experience - leading botanical surveys and vegetation assessments, with a strong understanding of UK plant ecology and habitats.
Leadership skills - proven experience in mentoring and managing teams, with a track record of successfully delivering complex projects.
Commercial acumen - the ability to manage projects from inception to completion, ensuring high-quality outcomes on time and within budget.
Communication skills - the ability to engage clients and contribute to project bids, technical reports, and ecological strategies.
What's on offer:
Competitive salary - because expertise deserves recognition.
Birthday leave - a day off to mark your special day.
Life assurance - for peace of mind, because fieldwork isn't always gentle.
Pension contributions - a solid plan for your future.
Generous holiday allowance - start at 20 days, rising to 28, plus bank holidays.
Private medical insurance - because long days in the field can be hard on a body.
Flexible benefits programme - more holidays, health cash plans, or discounted gym memberships for when the field season finally slows down.
