APEM Ltd, Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom
We’re looking for a Senior Ecologist to join our Terrestrial Ecology team based in Edinburgh. This is a hybrid role, with around 50% of your time spent in the field, leading protected species and habitat surveys across Scotland and the north of England. You’ll also contribute to tenders, reporting, and client liaison, with opportunities to support projects in Ireland too.
In this role, you’ll combine technical expertise with consultancy delivery. You’ll manage your own small and medium‑scale projects, support complex ecological assessments (PEA, EcIA, ES chapters), and play a key role in maintaining strong client and stakeholder relationships. You’ll also mentor junior staff, helping to develop the next generation of ecologists. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced ecologist who enjoys both technical delivery and leadership, working in the stunning landscape of Scotland, with a clear pathway to Principal Ecologist.
We offer private medical insurance for all employees, access to mental health first aiders and comprehensive income protection, superb flexible working options, and a commitment to continuous development and learning to support your career.
We are focused on creating a diverse and inclusive team. If you can’t tick every box on our job description, we are still keen to hear from you and are open to supporting your development. That may be working part time or supporting you to gain experience in a specific area – we are a growing company and are able to adapt roles to reflect individual skills.
If you think you have what it takes to join our fast‑growing business, please apply immediately on our website. All we need some basic information and your CV; we will review all applications quickly and will respond to all applications.
