Field Ecologists / Surveyors

Grade: Field Ecologist / Surveyor (several roles available)

About the Role

Are you a passionate Ecologist seeking an exciting opportunity to elevate your career? Have you
recently graduated and looking to start your career in ecological consultancy and want to
contribute to impactful project work? Perhaps you’re an established ecologist looking for
flexibility in your next career move? Do you envision a role that allows you to engage in a
range of challenging and interesting projects while undertaking fieldwork?

We are actively seeking Seasonal Field Ecologists to join our team, to play a pivotal role, due
to ongoing success and expansion of the business. By joining our team, you’ll be working
alongside a diverse group of experts, delivering excellent ecological services to our clients.
Your role will revolve around conducting terrestrial ecology site work, providing valuable
support and develop and expand your ecological knowledge and skills by assisting with protected
species and habitat surveys. Previous experience of conducting surveys for protected species is
advantageous but not essential, as full training will be provided. Please note that this role
is a temporary seasonal position.

About Us

At Aspect Ecology, we specialise in providing ecological consultancy services to a
well-established base of high-profile clients in both the public and private sectors. Our
Oxfordshire based team has a wealth of experience and expertise advising on an extensive range
of projects nationwide with a focus on integrating ecological habitats and wildlife benefits
within new developments. We are a professional and friendly team of enthusiastic ecologists who
thrive on innovation and delivering a high-quality output to our clients. See our website for
more and follow us on LinkedIn.

Most of our survey works span the Home Counties, with a focus on integrating ecological
habitats and wildlife benefits within new developments. We are interested in applicants based
across the South-East where much of our survey work is located, and, in particular, applicants
based close to Maidstone and Hailsham where we have some forthcoming projects, including
translocation works. Depending on project work during the ecological season, survey work may be
available in other areas in the UK.

About You

To be successful in this role, you’ll need:

  • A flexible and enthusiastic approach.
  • Confidence to work with protected species (e.g. reptiles, bats, amphibians), training
    provided.
  • Sound knowledge of UK wildlife and a keen interest in Natural History.
  • Ability to work ecological hours and travel with some requirement for overnight stays.
  • Willingness to work up to five days per week, with opportunities for weekend work.
  • A full driving licence and own car, insured for business use.
  • Experience of delivering client facing tasks such as ECoW is desirable.
  • A CSCS card would be beneficial but not crucial.

Wages are paid at an hourly rate (commensurate with your experience). B&B / hotel
accommodation will be provided, where required, and all business mileage / subsistence will be
reimbursed on a monthly basis.

To apply, please submit your CV and covering letter, explaining why you feel this
opportunity is right for you, to [email protected]

If your application is successful, we will contact you by email or telephone to discuss the
next steps and, where appropriate, arrange an interview.
