Project Manager
SWT Ecology Services is an ecological consultancy fully owned by Surrey Wildlife Trust. We play a vital role in climate change resilience and aim to balance the objectives of developers with the needs of the environment.
SWT Ecology Services is an advocate for protecting key environmental assets whilst at the same time being a facilitator of development that improves the quality of life for local communities. SWT Ecology Services manages the challenge of reconciling the two and sees each project as an opportunity to achieve the best possible outcome for both parties.
The role
We are looking for an experienced project manager to support our team of ecologists.
You will be responsible for delivering projects throughout the entire project life-cycle; liaising with clients, stakeholders and subject matter experts. You will be holding the team and sub-contractors to account on delivery, quality, time and costs as well as reporting against milestones, financials and resourcing. Your project portfolio will be diverse, and may include large infrastructure projects, housing developments and private home-owners.
You will be supporting the Managing Director on completing pre-qualification questionnaires and responding to tender opportunities.
This is an office-based role at our HQ in Pirbright, but will also involve site visits.
Ideally you will be able to start in early March 2021. This is a permanent full time role, however part-time roles will also be considered.
We operate a flexi policy and aim to provide a good work/life balance which can incorporate some home working whilst having an interesting and challenging working environment.
Your skills
You will have demonstrable experience in project management, managing multiple projects simultaneously and have experience in the construction and/or planning sectors.
You must be ready to travel, as required, to attend site meetings so a valid UK driver’s licence is essential and be able to work flexible hours. The salary will be based on your experience.
We are committed to having an inclusive and diverse workplace and encourage applications from backgrounds which may be underrepresented in our sector, including people from minority ethnic backgrounds and people with disabilities.
We are committed to offering an interview to all candidates that meet the essential criteria for the post. Please let us know if you require any adjustment to make our recruitment process more accessible.
SWT Ecology Services
SWT Ecology Services has a dynamic and supportive team of experienced ecologists. We are a fully owned subsidiary of Surrey Wildlife Trust and our office is in Pirbright, although remote working will be possible. We are committed to SWT’s mission to restore nature across our county, creating a Living Landscape for all to enjoy.
If this is the role for you:
Please send a completed application form to Gabbie Graham, MD of SWT Ecology Services. Application Form, with relevant application email, and full Job Profile available on the Surrey Wildlife Trust website.

Are you a confident researcher who would like to use your skills to amplify the voices and experience of Deaf and disabled people in Barnet? Do you have your own lived experience of disability (which could include a long term condition or mental health issues)?
We are looking for an enthusiastic self-starter to take on an exciting two year project to understand disabled people’s experience of the social care system. Using surveys and interviews, and supported by a steering group of users who you will work with closely, you will build a picture of how much people feel the support they receive is helping them achieve independence and the outcomes they aspire to. You’ll use that information to build reports and recommendations, culminating in a conference to share learning and hear from other areas about how to build best practice in support and co-production.
A natural relationship builder, you will be able to adjust your communication style to work effectively with a wide range of stakeholders, from users to senior council staff to other London DDPOs. You’ll also be able to write clearly, persuasively and accessibly, creating reports and information that people want to read. You’ll also be able to advocate effectively for greater co-production and make a positive case for change, sensitive to the perspective of a range of stakeholders but able to find solutions and suggestions that build user involvement.
You’ll hold overall responsibility for our user voice work, overseeing the work of our User Voice Lead and ensuring that there is effective shared learning between different projects. Supervisory experience would therefore be an asset, but we are also open to applications from talented disabled people looking to move into their first management role. Confidence to conduct high-quality research independently with minimal supervision is essential, however.
This is a great opportunity to create a really impactful piece of work and influence thinking on approaches to Adult Social Care. The work is Barnet-based, but we hope it will be influential far beyond the borough. So we’re looking for someone committed to making a difference, who will take this opportunity and help create positive change.
In return, you will become part of a friendly and supportive team, working within a focused but flexible culture, where diversity is valued and you can bring your whole self to work.
The role is based in Colindale, but with some flexibility for homeworking days. The role is totally home based during lockdown.
Interviews will be in early February, with the successful candidate commencing in post 1st April. To apply, please submit your CV and a full cover letter explaining how you would use your lived experience of disability to inform your work, as well as detailing your research experience.
