Kent’s Environment Team welcomes expressions of interest from experienced environmental professionals working on a freelance/contracting basis in the UK to support the team’s growth and workload.

If you are interested in staff roles, please continue to check our recruitment vacancies as we aim to continue to grow our core team in the near future.
