Job Description

Project Coordinator - Ecology (Office-Based, Oxfordshire or Hybrid)

Please note: A background in Ecology is considered essential for this role.

 I'm recruiting for a newly created Project Coordinator position with an established and forward-thinking ecological consultancy. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to remain closely involved in ecological projects but step away from fieldwork and into a structured, office-based coordination role.
 The company has built a strong model for developing early-career ecologists - bringing in interns and seasonal staff and training them up into consultant-level roles. This new Project Coordinator role has been introduced to bridge the gap between ecologists and clients, ensuring projects run smoothly and that junior staff are properly supported as they develop both technical and consultancy skills.
 In this role, you'd manage projects, liaise directly with clients, and mentor junior ecologists acting as assistant project managers. They'll handle surveys and fieldwork, while you coordinate delivery, review reports and quotes, and oversee communication with clients - keeping junior team members looped in so they can learn the ropes.
 It's a 9-5 office-based role (no fieldwork required), though hybrid working is available. Because the position is brand new, there's plenty of scope to shape it and make it your own.
 The role includes:
  
Project management and coordination of survey schedules 
Acting as the main point of contact for clients and the internal team 
Overseeing quotes, project documentation, and report reviews (especially if CIEEM qualified) 
Supporting and mentoring junior ecologists 
Helping refine internal processes as the role evolves  Who this would suit:
 This would be ideal for a Senior Ecologist who enjoys organisation, mentoring, and communication, but wants to move away from fieldwork into a more structured, strategic position.
 Essential Skills & Experience:
  
Strong enthusiasm for ecology and environmental work 
Solid understanding of UK habitat and protected species surveys 
Good grasp of survey design, mitigation, and best practice 
Confident communicator with clients and colleagues alike 
Organised, proactive, and collaborative 
Experience producing quotes and managing project delivery  Desirable:
  
Full or eligible member of CIEEM 
Strong report writing skills 
Degree in an ecology-related subject 
Previous line management or mentoring experience 
Business development or networking experience  Benefits include:
  
Competitive salary and pension 
Apple computer and iPhone 
Paid professional memberships 
Unlimited internal and external training budget 
Staff-nominated bonus scheme 
Unlimited annual leave and flexible working 
Genuine progression opportunities within a growing consultancy  The role is based within commuting distance of Oxfordshire, with the option of hybrid working
