Principal Consultant – Spatial Ecologist

Support the delivery of geospatial ecology services, including GIS, spatial data management, spatial modelling, and digital visualisation, to assist the Ecology and Environmental Approvals teams. Experience with Australian biodiversity mapping requirements is strongly favoured. The role contributes to the production of high-quality geospatial outputs for national projects across the mining, energy, transport, and water sectors, applying spatial analysis and best practice techniques to support environmental impact assessments, regulatory approvals, and planning projects.

Working closely with ecology and environmental approvals specialists, this role translates project requirements into effective spatial solutions, while maintaining data quality, consistency, and efficient workflows. The role also contributes to continuous improvement and innovation in geospatial processes, supporting the growth of geospatial ecology capability through strong technical delivery and collaboration across national teams and the broader WSP network.
