About this role
Tetra Tech is seeking to recruit a Principal Ecologist to join our Planning & Environmental team. Based in our Belfast office, this role offers an exciting opportunity to lead ecological, environmental and planning project inputs across the UK and Ireland while working within a supportive, multidisciplinary environment.
The position is based in a large, permanently desked office located on the edge of the city with on‑site parking, strong public transport connections and easy access to major road networks. The role supports hybrid working, with an expectation of two to three days per week in the office to facilitate mentoring, collaboration and team coordination. Flexible working arrangements can be accommodated where project responsibilities allow. The multidisciplinary environment provides exposure to a wide range of significant projects, including marine, coastal, regeneration and renewable‑related developments.
