🦋 Play a leading role in protecting British wildlife with ADAS
We’re looking for a Senior Ecological Consultant to join our motivated and growing ecology team in the South East of England.
As a Senior Ecological Consultant at ADAS, utility companies and developers will look to you for guidance on how to protect nature while they undertake work on sometimes complex infrastructure and housing projects. You will be confident giving clear instruction, overseeing works, and conducting appropriate assessments and surveys to ensure vulnerable species are considered and kept safe at all stages of development.
We envision the role as a hybrid one - it will be a mix of working at home, out on site, and time in the office spent with your team. On your first day, you will be assigned a mentor to help you get settled and find your feet.
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.
