We're hiring ecologists across the UK.

CSA Environmental is growing, and we're looking for new ecology team members from Ecologist through to Senior and Principal grades, to join our teams across the UK - with a particular focus on growth focused on our Sussex (Brighton) and Hertfordshire (Ashwell) teams.

About Us

We're an independent, multidisciplinary consultancy of 85 people, with over 50 ecologists across the business. We're proud to hold Great Place to Work certification (2026), awarded on our own team's feedback, and we mean it when we say people here are trusted and supported to grow.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Ecology at CSA

Ecology at CSA isn't a compliance exercise. We work alongside colleagues in landscape, heritage and masterplanning, and we encourage clients to deliver beyond the minimum on biodiversity, not just meet it. Habitat banks and BNG run through a lot of our work, and that's only growing.

Whatever stage you're at, you'll find:

  • Hybrid and flexible working
  • A genuine focus on internal progression
  • Generous CPD support and budget, with CIEEM membership and protected species class licence fees paid
  • Profit and performance related bonus and overtime pay for out-of-hours survey work
  • Pension contributions that increases with length of service
  • 25 days' leave, rising to 30 over 10 years
