Overview of the role Mott MacDonald are leading the way in Nature Services and we are looking for people to join our Ecology Team and to play their part in integrating nature into all developments with our clients so we can build a better future. We pride ourselves on setting and maintaining high standards and are at the forefront of providing ecological advice. Our team has written guidance and delivered training on BNG and contributed to CIEEM's raising standards documents. We've developed innovative tools to more robustly and efficiently collect and manage ecological data to enable our team to focus on really making a difference. We've provided detailed biodiversity advice to improve NHS hospitals for people and the planet, we're delivering Nature-based solutions for water treatment and flood management and we're over-seeing the production of a Local Nature Recovery Strategy.

You will lead ecology surveys (appropriate to your skills), manage field data and deliver technical reports. You will have the opportunity to expand your experience by working with our technical specialists and / or managing small-scale projects with senior staff. The projects you will be working on can span all stages of a project's life cycle, from design conception to implementation; giving opportunities to positively influence scheme design, and enhancements and promote best practice. Although you will be a member of the Cardiff ecology team, you will also be linked to a much larger team of ecologists. There are excellent opportunities to progress your career through promotion, as well as develop a key role within our ecology team. The role will suit a dynamic, proactive team-player who wants to work in a growth area of the business and help with the delivery of ecology services in a fast-moving, client-focused, commercial environment.

This decision is as a consequence of the changes made to the Skilled Worker route by the UK Government in April 2024. We continue to welcome applications from candidates who are eligible for alternative immigration routes in the UK, that do not require sponsorship as a Skilled Worker now or in future. Agile working At Mott MacDonald, we believe it makes business sense for you and your manager to choose how you can work most effectively to meet your client, team, and personal commitments.
