Ecology Projects Manager

The role is a permanent, flexible, and home working position, or can be linked to one of our offices if that is a preference. Our ecology business comprises a highly skilled team of over 50 consultants focused on providing services to a wide range of clients, particularly developers, utility companies, contractors, and the renewable energy and rural industries.
We are looking for an experienced project management who is proactive, organised, and confident in engaging with clients, colleagues, and stakeholders at all levels.
As an entrepreneurial organisation, we encourage and foster the growth of our employees. When joining ADAS, a mentor works with you to help you set and achieve your training and development goals. We want to accelerate your professional development, including opportunities for a promotional fast track. We also want to ensure you maintain a healthy work-life balance, with many opportunities for flexible working hours, locality flexibility, social activities, and community involvement projects.
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.
