  • Provide technical quality assurance and act as ecology lead on projects.
  • Manage projects from bid stage through to completion.
  • Support business development and maintain strong client relationships.
About You
  • Strong working knowledge of Biodiversity Net Gain legislation, policy, and wildlife law.
  • Proven experience delivering BNG assessments and ecological inputs across projects.
  • Experience in protected species survey, mitigation, and licensing.
  • Competent in GIS and geospatial tools.
  • Member of Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (or equivalent), with CEnv or CEcol chartership ( DESIRABLE)
  • Full UK driving licence.
Reward & Benefits
  • Competitive salary and tailored benefits package.
  • Hybrid and flexible working options across the UK.
  • Clear professional development and chartership support.
  • A collaborative, supportive team culture focused on making a positive environmental impact.
