Clarkson and Woods has opportunities for several seasonal Assistant Ecologists to help support our team during the busy field season. This is an excellent opportunity to learn some practical survey and mitigation techniques for a range of species and habitats alongside gaining experience of technical report writing and data presentation in our busy yet friendly and fun office. We operate a mix of office based and home working, with office attendance currently being at least 2 days per week, although the new assistants would be expected to attend the office initially 4 days per week to ensure adequate training and guidance can be provided by colleagues. Much of the assistant ecologist role will entail field work but we aim to provide a diversity of opportunity with the expectation that candidates will assist in managing projects, preparing reports and processing data.
Clarkson and Woods is a well-established and highly regarded ecological consultancy operating mainly in southern England. We offer a friendly, supportive, and well-equipped work environment. Job satisfaction and continuing professional development are core elements of our ethos. We take pride in providing a comprehensive training programme each year which includes guest lectures, workshops and practical field based training sessions which all staff are encouraged to attend.
You will be working on a range of projects, generally within Somerset and surrounding counties, but often further afield. You will expand your knowledge base and receive training in the field, surveying for protected species, including great crested newts, dormice and bats, as well as Phase 1 survey skills. At the office, you will be involved in report writing and have opportunities to attend specialist training including grassland species. Mentoring will be provided by Senior and Principal Ecologists within our 20+ strong team.
Successful applicants will need to be enthusiastic, independent, reliable and trustworthy. The nature of our work will require you to work outside of normal office hours, including field surveys for bats and newts during the evenings and early mornings. Travel throughout the UK (mainly Southern England and Wales) will be required, as will occasional overnight stays. All Ecologists are expected to work overtime during our busiest periods. Overtime is paid at standard hourly rates, and all business expenses are reimbursed.
