This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced wildlife manager to be pivotal in developing a centre of excellent for wildlife rehabilitation in the South East.
You will be responsible for admissions, initial assessment of casualties and for developing individual care plans for each animal, leading to their eventual release. You will also be responsible for the development of protocols and operating procedures, driving best practice throughout the unit.
If you are expecting to just ‘manage’ a wildlife unit, this role is not for you. You will be supported by a part time wildlife supervisor and a wildlife assistant at peak times, underpinned by volunteers, but you must be fully hands on in animal care.

You will need to have the vision to see beyond our current offering and contribute to the overall design and development of the new wildlife unit.
We do not have a resident vet and you must be prepared to make decisions on a day to day basis regarding the welfare of each animal. It is therefore essential that you will have worked in a similar rescue and rehabilitation unit for at least five years of which, at least two years must have been as a manager or in a senior leadership position. We will also consider applicants from a veterinary background, providing you have management and extensive hands-on wildlife experience.

The Gifts in Wills fundraising team promotes the opportunity of leaving a gift in a will to Unicef to the public, creating engaging supporter journeys for those considering leaving a gift in their will and building relationships with supporters who have committed to doing this.
As Supporter Engagement Officer, you will work on a wide range of channels, including direct mail, telemarketing, digital and face to face. You will be responsible for promoting gifts in wills messaging among existing Unicef supporters and providing high quality stewardship for those who express and interest in this way of supporting children.
It is an exciting time to join the Gifts in Wills team at Unicef, as we build on our new creative expression and strategy and work on innovative, exciting engagement projects for 2021.
