Working closely with two other Ecosystem Analysis Team leaders, you will lead the team’s delivery of innovative ways of measuring the trajectory of biodiversity at multiple scales and apply data and models that integrate biodiversity into the complex decision making in areas such as land management, sustainable production and overseas development projects. You will lead on work areas that span these elements and are cross-cutting, looking to drive data collection and analysis to best support evidence and decision-making for nature recovery.
