  • Helping to develop new resourcing processes and systems to suit our expanding business.
  • You will be actively involved in attending regular meetings with the terrestrial ecology team and your manager to support their resourcing needs.
  • Providing positive, organised and efficient support to the ecology teams going out in the field.
  • You will provide additional support to the wider team in other areas as priorities shift throughout the season, and as agreed with your line manager. Examples include but are not limited to, business operations, facilities support and equipment and asset management.
  • Having an active input in driving innovation and new technology in the company.

Successful candidates will

  • Be a strong communicator and able to engage with a variety of stakeholders
  • Be organised, efficient, able to work under pressure
  • Be computer literate with experience using MS Office products (primarily Word and Excel)
  • Be flexible and happy to go the extra mile when required, and willing to explore tasks outside their comfort zone
