Staff

Our staff are our greatest resource and we have built up a very strong team covering all disciplines of ecology, environmental management, hydrology, soil and geomorphological issues. Our current permanent staff comprises over thirty qualified ecologists/environmental scientists at different grades, supported by technical and administrative staff. Our numbers are increased during the summer months when we offer a graduate training and placement scheme on protected species.
 

The two Directors of the practice are Dr Stephanie Wray and Dr Warren Cresswell.

He is a highly-qualified ecologist, and has carried out ecological evaluations, impact assessments and research for a wide range of clients in both the public and private sectors. He is experienced in all aspects of the theory and practice of EIA, and is particularly experienced in the survey and assessment of, and mitigation for, rare and protected species. He has presented evidence with regard to the likely impacts of developments at Public Inquiries concerning industrial, housing, leisure and transport developments. Dr Cresswell has a BSc (first class) in Biology from the University of London and a PhD in Ecology from the University of Bristol.
