Full job description

About the role.

We’re looking for an Ecologist to join our friendly and highly skilled team in Brighton, East Sussex.

CSA Environmental is an independent, multidisciplinary consultancy of 85 people across five offices. Our Brighton team of 10 ecologists, that form part of a wider team of 50+ ecologist across the business, have built a strong reputation across the south-east for providing clear, reliable ecological advice, and for encouraging clients to go further than the baseline.

We are proud to hold the Great Place to Work certification (2026), independently awarded based on our team’s own feedback. It reflects what we’ve always believed: that good work comes from people who feel valued, trusted and supported to grow.

Ecology is not about compliance, it’s increasingly the discipline that shapes how development land is planned, designed and valued. At CSA, we take that seriously. We actively encourage clients to look beyond mandatory requirements and to think about what genuine long-term biodiversity improvement looks like on their sites. That ambition runs through our project work, our habitat bank schemes, and the advice we give at every project stage.

What you’ll be doing

Undertaking UKHab baseline field surveys, with and without support/input from other ecologists in the team
Undertaking desktop data searches for biological records/information and discussions with nature conservation consultees, as required
Obtaining and reviewing local plans, planning policies and other relevant policy information, and developing a basic working knowledge of the planning system
Preparing Preliminary Ecological Appraisal reports using our standard framework and applying standard CIEEM evaluation criteria, for final review by a Senior/Associate Ecologist
Undertaking protected species surveys, dependent on personal experience, and providing support on surveys with our other ecologists
Hold at least one personal survey licence, and demonstrating progress towards obtaining further licences
Preparing reports following protected species surveys for review/completion by a Senior/Associate Ecologist
Interacting and communicating with clients and other contacts in a professional and responsible manner at all times, across telephone, written and electronic communications
Working professionally with all colleagues and supporting the Senior/Associate Ecologists as required, including a reasonable contribution to general administration work
Assisting with the training and professional development of junior colleagues
Assisting with the preparation and implementation of EPS and other licence applications
Becoming familiar with and using QGIS and other graphics packages used by CSA, to produce simple maps and plans suitable for external use (e.g. site location plans, habitat plans)
Demonstrating and developing an understanding of Biodiversity Net Gain, including associated legislation and best-practice guidance, along with a working knowledge of the Statutory BNG metric and developing QGIS skills to measure habitat areas and populate the metric
Undertaking additional work outside of normal working hours, as reasonably required by specific survey needs and company workloads, on a par with the other ecologists (regular dusk and occasional dawn bat surveys, overnight newt surveys, etc.). At peak times this may involve 2–3 nights in a week (not including weekends)
Playing an active role in organising work and survey planning, to benefit the smooth running of the team
Complying with all CSA Health and Safety procedures in the course of your work, including consideration for the safety of others where leading a survey or site visit

About you

We’re looking for a motivated, conscientious ecologist with a practical, solutions-focused approach and a genuine interest in doing ecology well.

Essential:

Degree in ecology or biology (2:1 or above desirable)
Some experience of UKHab and protected species surveys
Developing botanical skills
Working knowledge of relevant wildlife legislation
Good written and verbal communication
Confident with MS Office; willingness to develop QGIS skills
Well-organised, collaborative and adaptable
Willingness to undertake evening surveys and occasional overnight stays
Full UK driving licence and own vehicle (insured for business use)
Qualifying or Associate membership of CIEEM (or actively working toward it)

Desirable:

At least one personal protected species survey licence (e.g. bats, dormice or others)
Interest in developing a technical specialism (e.g. ornithology or botany)
Awareness of Biodiversity Net Gain and the Statutory BNG metric

If you don’t meet every point here but have strong foundations and transferable skills, we’d still like to hear from you.

What we offer

Salary and contract:

Ecologist: £30-36K – depending on experience (an additional SE salary weighting will also be applied to roles within the Brighton team)
Permanent, full-time contract

Flexibility:

Financial:

Annual profit-related and performance bonus
Overtime pay for out-of-hours survey work
Pension contributions that increase with length of service

Leave:

25 days annual leave (to include 3 days for Christmas shutdown)
Rising incrementally to 30 days over 10 years

Development and progression:

Supported career progression. Promotion from within is a genuine priority at CSA, and we invest in developing the people already in our team
Generous CPD and external training budget
Career development aligned with the CIEEM Competency Framework
Paid CIEEM membership and EPS class licence fees

Team and culture:

Role is set within a team of 10 ecologists within the Brighton, East Sussex office, with strong cross-office connections across all five CSA locations
Annual company and ecology team events, plus volunteering days
Family-friendly policies
Employee Assistance Programme and mental health first-aiders

CSA Environmental is built on collaboration, mutual respect and continuous learning. People share knowledge generously, across disciplines as well as within them. Working alongside landscape architects, heritage consultants, masterplanners and arboriculturists doesn’t just make projects better. It makes ecologists better.

We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds
