You will be encouraged and supported in developing key professional competencies such as survey design and methodologies, data handling, and technical write-up, as well as interpersonal communication skills, and basic commercial and business knowledge. This role would suit an applicant that has been in the sector two years looking for the next step in their career. Driving nature-positive change to address the challenges of biodiversity loss and climate change are core values of this role, the Ecology Team, and the Firm as a whole.
