About The Role Are you a dedicated Ecologist with a passion for plants, and well-developed habitat and plant identification skills? Are you ready to take your career to the next level, where you can manage your own projects, take the lead on client relationships, and embrace the role of a mentor and leader to early career ecologists? Do you value working for an employer who allows you the flexibility to work from home or an office alongside fieldwork? We are actively seeking an experienced and ambitious Botanist to join our growing Natural Capital Team. In this crucial role, you will be supporting the delivery of a range of projects from small site surveys to large landscape projects through a combination of field and desk-based work. You'll be producing reports to a high standard, working on new tender opportunities and providing support on projects with complex botanical elements, as well as liaising with clients. With the support of our experienced team, you'll develop your skills and experience, with continued professional development and career progression being a key focus of our close-knit team. To be successful in this role, you'll need:

Significant experience with UK botanical identification (ideally FISC level 4 or equivalent skill level). Experience of completing NVC surveys. Knowledge and experience of UK Habitat Classification surveys and Phase 1 habitat surveys. Experience of report writing to a high standard with a proven track record of submission of planning-related documents or science-led technical papers. Sound knowledge and practical application of UK environmental and wildlife legislation. A full UK driving licence. You will be offered the chance to work on a variety of projects; many of our employees have worked on projects that have been of personal interest to them. We match this with a commitment to continuous development and learning to support your career. We also offer benefits to look after you, from private medical insurance for all employees, access to mental health first aiders, and comprehensive income protection if you cannot work. We also offer superb flexible working options, balancing work with your life. Next steps

We are focused on creating a diverse and inclusive team. If you can’t tick every box on our job description, then we are still keen to hear from you and are open to supporting your development.
