Glasgow, United Kingdom MacArthur Green Full time

MacArthur Green specialises in providing ecology, ornithology and peat consultancy services for renewables and grid projects. We are dedicated to helping projects with important benefits to nature succeed, whilst creating a positive environmental legacy through our work.

Our team has strong mix of scientific, commercial and regulatory knowledge and experience. This ensures that we consistently deliver high quality and pragmatic services and advice.

We require an enthusiastic and talented Ecologist to join our team to help with protected species (bat, otter, water vole, badger etc) and peat survey projects.

The Ecologist will provide essential support to our friendly ecology team. The position will be largely site based so you must love the great outdoors in all its splendour, and in all the elements. Lone working will be required, so you must be resourceful and content to work alone.

The role will include:

  • Supporting the field staff in preparing for survey work (vehicle checks, access, risk assessments, field survey sheets and figures).
  • Ecology Surveys (bats, otter, water vole, badger, pine marten, red squirrel etc).
  • Supporting water quality monitoring, peat depth and peat coring survey work.
  • Data entry (Excel) and digitisation (QGIS).

The successful candidate will meet the following criteria:

  • Degree or equivalent experience in an environmental field (e.g. Ecology, Zoology, Environmental Management).
  • Experience of undertaking ecology field surveys.
  • A passion for ecology and the natural environment.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and a flexible and proactive approach to work.
  • Strong IT skills including, MS Word and Excel.
  • Valid UK driving licence (manual is essential, ideally 4x4 driving experience).
  • Willingness to travel and work away from home.

Benefits

Employment Type: 6 Months Fixed term – April to September

Start date: Early April

Salary: £25,500 per annum

Holidays: 30 days pro rata

Pension contribution: 3% company contribution (based on you contributing the legal minimum of 5%)

We devote time and resource to supporting and developing our team. We offer solid training and career development opportunities, monthly walk and talk catch ups with your line manager, and annual appraisals. Depending on your passion to progress and the time you have available, we will work with you to develop your specialism and valuable sector knowledge.

Submission is by CV and covering letter to: recruitment@macarthurgreen.com

Deadline: 29 March 2024

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early. Please submit your application as soon as possible.

A bit more about us

Through the work we do and the way we operate, we aim to have an enduring positive environmental legacy. We are doing this in three ways: we only work on projects which deliver a positive environmental impact, we support research projects relevant to sustainable development (we have part-funding six PhD students) and we have planted our own native woodland scheme in Argyll (almost 30,000 trees) which is a key component of our carbon conscious and biodiversity positive business model.
