If you are an enthusiastic & passionate freshwater ecologist, a strong team player who can achieve results and adopt changing priorities quickly, join us & develop in a really fulfilling role.
The core work is aquatic ecological surveying, species identification & analysing data to assess the changing environment. We also support pollution, drought & flooding incident response.
The role is full of variety & there are many opportunities to build expertise & we provide specialist training.
- We work together in the field; undertaking ecological field surveys of aquatic plants, macroinvertebrates, algae, fish & freshwater habitats.
- In our laboratories we analyse samples of aquatic macroinvertebrates to mixed taxon level (including some to species) & identify problem algae.
- From our offices we interpret data & write compelling reports to inform & influence, protecting the environment through advice, regulation & enforcement. We also share our data & findings with others in person to affect change.

Responding to incidents is a key responsibility & you will be required to have an incident role, make yourself available to respond to environmental incidents & may choose to contribute to other incidents. This may attract an additional payment & full training & alternative working arrangements will be available to support you with any incident role.
Our working patterns & locations are reasonably flexible, depending on the business need. Field work will predominantly cover Cornwall and the west of Devon. Lab work is conducted at the offices in Bodmin. We develop our people, seek to achieve real outcomes for the environment, enjoy our work enormously & we commit to an inclusive, safe, fair and empowering culture.
- The team- In Analysis & Reporting we are a diverse mix of environmental scientists, with different backgrounds & specialisms, passionate about our area & our work, striving hard together to help create a better environment, for the wildlife dependent upon it & the people who live in this beautiful & environmentally rich part of the country. Join us & together we’ll make a difference in Devon, Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly.
- Experience/skills required- An ecological or environmental science based technical degree or sufficient relevant freshwater ecology/hydrobiology experience will provide a strong base for this post; as would experience through other routes.
A foundation in freshwater species identification, microscopy, using dichotomous keys & familiarity with field survey methodologies for macroinvertebrates, plants, fish and habitat in freshwater would demonstrate potential for success in this role.
Conducting ecological surveys with field identification, lab-based macroinvertebrate identification, populating databases, data interpretation & reporting are core work, as is involvement in pollution response & other incident management activities across the organisation’s remit.
In addition there are opportunities to be involved in all our diverse monitoring commission, from water quality assessment, historic metal mines impact assessment through to salmon & sea trout trapping & migration assessment.
Driving is required for out of office activities & a sound health & safety culture is essential for lab & field work especially.
- Contact and additional information- This role is location-based, within the area covered by the team, predominantly working face to face with others although within a hybrid working model, balancing essential face to face working with colleagues in the office/lab & off site with partners & others, field working around our Area, along with flexible home working as appropriate. Team vans, pool cars & hire cars are made available for work travel. Contributing to incident management & certain fieldwork may require occasional unsociable hours working & training may require overnight stays. We value & promote a diverse workforce & are fully committed to being an inclusive employer.
