Natural Resources Wales is a young and ambitious organisation with a unique remit that is breaking new ground in its sustainable management of Wales’ precious natural resources. When natural resources and our ecosystems flourish, society and the economy thrive as well. Established in 2013 by the Welsh Government, this pan-Wales organisation of 2000 people with a budget of £200m is the first of its kind in the world to bring together the tools needed to manage, maintain, enhance and sustain natural resources. NRW have a unique legislative framework within Wales that gives exceptional scope for this role to make a real difference on a significant scale. The organisation wants to be one of the first to leave the natural environment in a better state than they found it in, and to help improve the well-being and prosperity of the people of Wales.

Due to a restructure, NRW seek a Head of Sustainable Commercial Development to join their leadership team. This role offers an exceptional opportunity for someone with a passion for the sustainable management of natural resources and commercial development to lead a team of c. 35 staff in Commercial and Business Development and an annual budget of £30m timber sales, £13m commercial income, and £11.5m spend.

NRW’s commercial activities including Energy, Timber, Tourism & Recreation, Culture and Analytical Services provide an important income stream at a time when public funding continues to be stretched to cover more and go further with less. However, their commercial activity is not focused on financial gain alone. Planet and People are as important as ‘Profit’ (income/investment) and NRW are focused on Prosperity for Wales.

NRW are looking for an inspiring individual with passion who can nurture the organisation to grow in confidence in its commercial delivery, the energy to help NRW, customers and partners achieve their goals, shape their long-term commercial proposition and realise their potential as an organisation.
