Consultant (6-months with possibility to extend)
Kew Reach was founded to respond to the twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss, created as a science-driven partnership between the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and Greensphere Capital's Gaia Sciences Innovation platform. We apply the best-in-class knowledge of more than 500 Kew scientists and our global network of specialists to nature restoration projects of every size, from ecosystem regeneration to urban development initiatives. By transforming internationally renowned science into real-world restoration, we aim to restore damaged landscapes, support community wellbeing and help institutions meet their environmental goals.
Kew Reach is looking for a Consultant to join our team, ideally a recent MSc graduate with a background in biological sciences or ecology interested in a role delivering nature and ecosystem restoration projects. Working closely with our Senior Project Manager, you'll support the research and development of project deliverables - translating client briefs into actionable outputs, contributing to strategic planning documents, conducting desk-based research and site assessments, and helping manage project timelines and programmes. Recent work has included supporting the development of national seed management strategies, identifying key seed harvesting locations, advising on seedbank and hub network design, and providing technical input on herbaria and botanic garden infrastructure. This is initially a consultancy position with the possibility of moving into a full-time role. If you have a passion for conservation, strong research and writing skills, and thrive in a collaborative, project-driven environment, we'd love to hear from you.
