Ecologist wanted near Exeter!

[CoffeeCritter]

I am looking for an ecologist to work on a reptile translocation project near Exeter. I ideally want someone with experience handling reptiles - particulalry adders. A full driving licence and transport are essential requirments.

The project will last for approximately two months. 1st August to the 30th September. The successful candidate will need to be willing to work weekends as well as weekdays.


This is a great opportunity for an aspiring ecologist to gain valuable experience - and earn a few quid!


Kind regards,

Tony Owens


All enquiries to my email please

Getting in touch with your local ARG would be the best bet. I assume you are already in touch with them in such a serious and delicate project though?

Hi Tony,

Im an ecologist and exploring other avenues is fine, but placing an open ad on a wildlife forum shouldnt be allowed. If you require an ecologist, look up consultancies in the area of exeter who have experience of undertaking reptile mitigations.

Your ad sounds like you may even be recruiting from a consultancy to get bucket monkeys on the cheap, again in my opinon this is the wrong place to advertise.

If ive got it wrong then accept my apology but we subscribe to professional codes of conduct for a reason and part of that is to ensure works are undertaken by qualified and experienced personell.

If your a genuine person looking for an ecologist to design and undertake a reptile mitigation on your behalf, pm me and I would be happy to suggest an appropritely qualified ecologist from the exeter area.
