Associate or Senior Wildlife Biologist/Regulatory Specialist
We are seeking an Associate or Senior Wildlife Biologist/Regulatory Specialist to support ecological assessments, wildlife surveys, environmental permitting and regulatory compliance for a diverse portfolio of projects. The successful candidate will apply strong technical knowledge and practical field experience to help clients understand and manage potential impacts on wildlife, habitats and protected species. This role offers the opportunity to work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams while contributing to projects from initial planning and field investigation through reporting, approvals and implementation.
Key responsibilities include planning and conducting wildlife and habitat surveys; identifying, documenting and evaluating potential impacts to listed, sensitive and migratory species; preparing technical reports, constraints analyses, biological assessments and permit applications; and supporting consultations with relevant federal, state, provincial, tribal and local agencies. You will interpret applicable environmental legislation and regulations, develop avoidance, minimisation and mitigation measures, and provide regulatory advice to project managers and clients. Additional duties may include reviewing technical work, managing scopes, budgets and schedules, mentoring junior staff, participating in fieldwork in varied conditions, and contributing to proposals and business development activities.
Applicants should hold a degree in biology, wildlife management, ecology, environmental science or a related discipline, together with relevant professional experience in wildlife biology, environmental consulting or regulatory compliance. Experience with protected species assessments, wetland or habitat evaluations, permitting processes and agency coordination is highly desirable. Senior-level candidates should demonstrate project management capability, strong technical writing skills and experience leading teams or client assignments. Candidates at all levels must be able to communicate clearly, organise competing priorities, work independently and collaboratively, and travel to field locations as required. Familiarity with geographic information systems, standard wildlife survey methods and environmental review procedures will be advantageous. Appropriate professional licences, certifications or species-specific permits are welcomed.
