Overview

This is a fantastic time to join RPS. As one of the UK’s leading multi-disciplinary Consultancies, we are working on a number of high profile projects and require first class, innovative and motivated staff. With an enviable client list, and the highest calibre multi-disciplinary back up team, we are able to offer unparalleled opportunities, in a dynamic work place, where achievements are rewarded and progress encouraged.

We are looking for Ecologists to join the Teams in our Oxford, Bristol, Edinburgh, Derby, Cambridge and Southampton offices.

The role will initially be for 4-6 months to cover the Survey Season and will then be reviewed with a possibility of a permanent position becoming available at that time.

You will be responsible for carrying out habitat and protected species surveys, data analysis, research, report writing and potentially Ecological Clerk of Works duties. Please note that you will not need to have performed all of these duties previously but we would be looking for a willingness to learn new skills and the ability to assimilate new information quickly.

You will need to hold a degree in Ecology/Environmental Science (or similar) and be proficient with MS Office. You will need to have knowledge of at least one Taxa to survey standard and hold at least one protected species licence.

Travel will be an essential part of this role so a full driving licence and access to your own vehicle would be required.

In return, we offer a very competitive salary and benefits package, together with the opportunity to develop your career with one of the UK’s leading Environmental Consultancies.
