Do you want to be involved in an exciting new partnership project that will connect
regenerative agriculture, wildlife surveys and training?

Devon Wildlife Consultants (DWC) is the commercial arm of Devon Wildlife Trust (DWT), Devon’s
leading wildlife conservation charity. DWC are looking for a Senior Ecologist to join our
friendly and close-knit commercial consultancy team. We provide a range of commercial services
including wildlife surveys and assessment, developer support, training, and advice to
businesses and landowners. Profits from the company are donated to Devon Wildlife Trust to help
deliver its extensive programme of conservation, learning and engagement activities.

DWC are involved in a new project called ‘Connecting People and Landscapes’ which is being led
by the Bat Conservation Trust and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. This is a new
role required to deliver the project and will involve planning and coordinating surveys,
training junior staff and liaising with project partners, landowners and community groups.

The Connecting People and Landscapes project will utilise previously untapped species data to
identify areas of pressure and potential expansion that will target areas for focussed species
interventions. We will work with land managers leading in the field of regenerative agriculture
to share and develop best practice and transfer knowledge across regional clusters to deliver
habitat that will benefit people and nature, as well as train a new and more diverse generation
in sustainable farming methods and ecological surveying.

This is a partnership project being led by Bat Conservation Trust (BCT), project partners are:
Devon Communities Together (DCT), Devon Wildlife Trust (DWT) (with contractors Devon Wildlife
Consultants (DWC)), East Devon AONB, Knepp Estate, South Devon AONB (SDAONB) and University of
Exeter (UoE). Project staff will be hosted across the partnership, with roles based at BCT,
DWC, SDAONB and UoE, and expertise provided by the other partners.

In return for your hard work and dedication you’ll enjoy a wide range of benefits including:

  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (increasing to 28 days after 5 years’ services)
  • Agile working arrangements including home working
  • Flexitime system with no unpaid overtime
  • Contributory pension scheme (conditions apply)
  • Death in Service cover
  • Access to an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Training and development opportunities

The project will run for 18 months in its development phase, with the aim of securing
four-years of delivery phase funding following this. There will therefore be the opportunity
for this contract to be extended subject to the CPL partnership successfully securing delivery
phase funding.

This is a full-time, fixed term contract until March 2025 based at Aldens Court, Exeter. A
part-time appointment at 0.8 FTE will be considered. If you are applying on a part-time basis,
please could you indicate this in your covering letter.

Interviews are being held on Tuesday 23 January.

We welcome candidates of all backgrounds and abilities who meet the essential criteria for this
role. We are an inclusive organisation that is seeking to involve more diverse audiences in our
work.

DWT is committed to the principle of equal opportunity in employment.
