Assistant / Consultant Ecologists - Scotland

About the team:

•     Multi-award winning Ecology team; recently winning CIEEM Large Consultancy of the Year and Large Scale Mitigation project in 2023.

•    Over 85 permanent ecologists across 13 offices working as one cohesive team. 
•    Time away from home minimised.  
•    IT systems allow seamless remote and flexible working, so proximity to an office is not a barrier– we focus on talents & skills, not postcode.  Our ecologists can work on the projects that interest them and deliver them to the highest standards.
•    Cars or car allowances to every member of the team regardless of grade, including for personal use.
•    Established TOIL system to allow time management to suit specific personal needs alongside seasonal demands.
•    Career frameworks provide clarity on how to progress.
•    We encourage the development of well-rounded ecologists who can talk about all stages of a project. We offer internal and external training and mentoring, including from our inhouse experts.
•    Bat handling licence incentivisation scheme to thank ecologists who spend time and effort in achieving their licence - we know it's not easy! 
•    And to show our support of personal development, we award a significant financial bonus to anyone achieving Chartered Environmentalist/Ecologist status through CIEEM.
•    We work closely with many other teams, including our own Planners, Archaeologists, Landscape Architects, Masterplanners and Engineers. With a culture of openness, there is always someone within the business who can provide advice and support for almost any query.
