Southwest Environmental Limited

Environmental Consultancy Jobs

We are potentially hiring new staff in to consulting roles. We are looking for Ecologists and other Environmental Scientists. But not Geologists we have one of those already.

You would be expected to work across the UK. You can work in an office or from home.

Our pay package is Minimum Wage, but with performance & ethos related bonuses based on the number of reports issued in a given month & ethos recommendations. You will receive an introductory bonus in your first month with us, to account for the lack of performance related bonus available in your first months salary.

You will find working at Southwest Environmental Limited rewarding. We incentivize you to work hard and this sharpens the senses, and increases the quality of your work. Working solely by the hour is not good for morale or productivity.

We also offer a Ethos Bonus via peer recommendations, this is given for helping others, or going beyond what is normally expected. This could be for helping colleagues, or doing charity work.

Approximate Salary as of July 2023 is £21,700 based on 2000 working hours per annum. However, with a little hard work you could make £30,000. If you can combine speed, quality and positive ethos then perhaps even more.

Performance Bonus:

• Slow Worker (Contractual Minimum) - 4 Reports Completed per Month - £4800 Annual Bonus (Paid Monthly)
• Moderate Worker - 6 Reports Completed Per Month - £7200 Annual Bonus (Paid Monthly)
• Quick Worker - 8 Reports Completed Per Month - £9600 Annual Bonus (Paid Monthly)

Ethos Bonus:

• Good - You are recommended 4 times a month.  £40 Quarterly Hamper of Choice
• Better - You are recommended 6 times a month. £60 Quarterly Hamper of Choice
• Best - You are recommended 6 times a month. £80 Quarterly Hamper of Choice

There is of course a run in period where you do not have meet the contractual minimum. And the targets are pro-rata, so if you take time off for what ever reason, you will not have to make up numbers (unless you want to).

Requirements:

• Good Written English
• Degree in Environmental Science
• Open Mind
• Practical Skills
• Driving License

Dress Code:

• You can wear what ever you like. Appearance and may have a scientific correlation, but this is likely more a product of how fickle human being are, and we would suggest its not great to feed in to the ideology that looks matter.

Bad Behavior:

• We want to uphold a positive work environment here at SWEL. We are encouraging this with incentives, but we also take a hard line against negative attitudes. If we find any staff members being insulting or using negative language (that exceed the boundaries of scientific critique) towards colleagues, then there are terms within employment contracts that could see you dismissed.

Things that are encouraged:

• Take time to listen to other opinions.
• Be polite to colleagues and clients.
• Treat each other as equals.
• Complement each other on work.
• Try to understand the client's needs.
• Be aspirational. Want to study? Ask about that.

The above represents the bare bones of our offer. Employment contract to be drafted prior to formal job offer, it may vary a little, but this is pretty much the gist of it.

Please email a CV to the office - swenviro+bristol@gmail.com and we will be glad to arrange an interview if we are still looking for people.

Kind regards,

Will Thorpe - Managing Director
