Job Description
Building Biodiversity Better
Step out of the ordinary and shape the future of ecology.
At Ecology by Design, we're redefining what it means to be an ecological consultant - blending scientific rigour with creativity, innovation, and a genuine commitment to restoring nature. Here, your expertise isn't boxed in by bureaucracy or lost in endless process. It drives real-world change.
If you're a Senior or Principal Ecologist ready to take ownership of your work, influence project outcomes, and lead with purpose, this is your moment. You'll join a passionate, forward-thinking team where autonomy, trust and technical excellence go hand in hand — and where your ideas shape landscapes, policy, and the next generation of ecological practice.
This isn't just another consultancy role, it's a chance to be part of a movement that puts biodiversity, innovation, and people at the heart of everything we do.
We are Ecology by Design.
