Some practical experience through placements, internships, or project work (e.g. environmental assessments, site-based work, or reporting)
Ability to collect, record, and manage environmental data accurately
Good written and verbal communication skills for reporting and working with multidisciplinary teams
Willingness to visit sites and work in outdoor or construction environments as required
Full UK driving licence
