Responsibilities

The role will pre-dominantly comprise conducting bat emergence/re-entry surveys, so most of your time will be taken up surveying. Please note, these surveys take place at dusk (and occasionally dawn), so your hours will not be 9-5. You will be required to work unsociable hours and expected to flexibly manage your time for admin work. You will typically be asked to do 4-5 BERS a week (the majority of which will be dusk surveys)
Your non-survey time will be spent carrying out analysis of data from the previous night’s survey (including bat calls), report writing, mapping and project admin (i.e. client communication, updating systems)
There will be opportunity to undertake additional training and shadowing experienced ecologists on other survey types, such as Preliminary Ecological Appraisals, Preliminary Roost Assessments and other protected species surveys. This will however depend on your BERS workload, as surveying will take priority over the summer
You will need travel to site so will need your own (reliable) form of transport. We pay 45p per mile to re imburse you for travel costs (and 10p more if you ride share)
Work will be allocated based on your location. We will always try to ensure your work is within a 2 and a half hour travelling radius. However, on occasion we may ask you to travel further, in which you will be expected to stay over. All costs related to staying over will be covered by the company
BERS surveys (which will make up a significant proportion of your working week) take place peri-dusk and less frequently, pre-dawn. This isn’t compatible with having a second job
