You will be joining a highly professional, international multidisciplinary environmental consultancy with an established and well-respected presence in Ireland and the UK.
The roleDuties will be varied but will include:
- Managing and overseeing ecological aspects of projects, advising clients on schemes such as mixed use and residential developments, minerals/waste projects, infrastructure and energy projects.
- Preparation of fee proposals and scope of works, report writing and technical review of peer and sub-contractor reports.
- Supervision and mentoring of junior ecologists, which may also include staff management and leading work on particular ecological specialisms.
- Scheduling, managing, and ensuring delivery of ecological survey work packages on time and budget, using in-house and occasionally sub-contractor staff.
- Liaising with other SLR technical teams on a variety of subjects including planning, landscape, hydrology, noise and air quality whilst working closely with senior members of the ecology team in other SLR offices, both in Ireland and overseas.
The role will involve working with other team members located across Ireland and may require short-term travel throughout the island of Ireland and potentially overseas, depending on client/project sites.

We are a consultancy with over 3,000 employees across 6 regions, including over 1,000 colleagues in Europe.

- Excellent working knowledge of wildlife legislation and planning policy.
- Work experience within a range of sectors including residential/mixed use, infrastructure, minerals and waste, and energy.
- Experience in the preparation of Ecological Impact Assessments, ecology chapters for EIARs, AA screening reports and NISs.
- Full driving licence valid in the EU.
