Employee-owned model with profit share + extra leave options
Step in its build phase - enjoy input into how things run
Major infrastructure + renewables work
As a Senior Ecologist in the Sydney office of this global sustainability and engineering consultancy, you'll be joining a team on the rise. Ecology is no longer just support work here - it's being carved out as a dedicated business line.
This is a team in reliable growth mode. The projects are flowing across infrastructure planning, transport upgrades and emerging renewables. What's needed now are senior team members to help shape the culture, delivery standards and future direction. That's where you come in.
The Role
You'll lead field surveys, write reports, support approvals and help drive the ecological components of multi-year transport and energy projects across NSW.
Deliver ecological inputs across infrastructure, energy, and renewable projects
Conduct field surveys (flora/fauna), BioCondition assessments, RE mapping
Prepare impact assessments under NSW and federal legislation
Feed into EPBC referrals, offsets, and mitigation planning
Contribute to proposals,
resourcing and team systems as the team grows
Mentor and support junior ecologists as the function scales
Who You'll Work With
You'll sit within a national ecology network and a growing Sydney setting team (~15 staff). The culture is collaborative, non-hierarchical and deeply values technical quality. There's a clear appetite to invest in ecology - not just as a service line, but as a practice that can stand on its own.
You'll be backed by people-first policies like profit share, versatile WFH arrangements, and additional leave purchase options. It's a business that balances global resources with local autonomy, and it's early days for the NSW ecology growth story, meaning you can still help write it.
What You'll Bring
7+ years' ecological consulting experience (ideally in NSW)
Strong field ID skills - flora and/or fauna - plus BioCondition & RE mapping
Experience preparing ecological impact assessments and offset strategies
Understanding of EPBC and NSW frameworks
SQP status highly desirable
