RABI has a crucial role to play now and into this uncertain future to support the well-being of this vital community. At the heart of this role is people, so you'll need an ability to empathise with and understand the issues facing farming communities, but it isn't essential to have prior personal experience.

As Regional Volunteer Manager, you will be the local ambassador for RABI, promoting awareness of the charity and increasing income and other support across the counties in your patch.

ABOUT US

The Woodland Trust is the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity.  We want to see a world where trees and woods thrive for people and nature. The Trust engages and inspires people to make their difference tackling the nature and climate crisis helping protect, restore and create our vital woods and trees.  

THE ROLE

The Woodland Trust has acquired and manages over 1,300 sites across the UK. The composition and highly fragmented nature of our estate means it is under increasing threat from numerous animal species which threaten our aims. To help us grow effectively, we require a UK lead specialising in all aspects of wildlife management. As well as our Estate, this role will also support our Outreach teams working with third parties.

The UK Operations Manager - Wildlife will lead in all aspects of wildlife management, advising, training and supporting operational staff on wildlife management. The role will lead on assessments and planning and will be the liaison point with external partners such as eNGOs, public bodies and other stakeholders. You will be the lead for the department on public and member relations as well as keeping strategic oversight of our comprehensive wildlife management datasets. 

THE CANDIDATE

With a strong background in all aspects of Wildlife Management, you’ll be used to working in a position of responsibility to ensure the management of wildlife on our estate and the work of our outreach teams is professionally supported. This role will lead on operational policy, development and review and set up reporting systems, so you’ll need to be able to work closely with colleagues in our conservation advisory and outreach teams to support them.

You’ll have strong leadership skills, and be an excellent communicator, able to deliver high quality training and support. You’ll be organised, flexible and able to work under your own initiative. Ideally you’ll have experience in wildlife management in the woodland environment sometimes with visitor access challenges. Your knowledge of the law relating to wildlife, qualifications for deer management and firearms legislation will be comprehensive to provide reassurance to our staff, contractors, visitors and supporters. 

Given the nature of the estate, you will be expected to travel throughout the UK with occasional overnight stays away to deliver staff inductions, training, advice and representing the organisation at events and meetings. The role has a UK-wide remit but in practice the majority of the work, and thus travel, is likely to be in England and Wales. 

WHAT TO EXPECT BY JOINING A TEAM AND MAKING A DIFFERENCE

There’s no other organisation like the Woodland Trust. Joining the team you will be making your contribution to tackling the nature and climate crisis. In return, we recognise and value our people. You'll have our full support, training and opportunities for professional development, along with a contributory pension, life assurance, good holiday allowance and the opportunity to work flexibly from home. 

OUR COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY & INCLUSION

At the Woodland Trust, we believe everyone deserves to have their lives enriched by trees and woods.

We also believe that our organisation should reflect and represent the full richness of human diversity in terms of background, identity, ability and circumstance. As groups of people currently underrepresented as Woodland Trust employees, we are particularly keen to receive your application if you are Black, Asian or minority ethnic, disabled or under 25. We are measuring our success in redressing this. 

We are open to discussion of any adjustments or flexible working arrangements you may need to achieve your full potential at any stage of the process, and if you are successful in gaining a position with us, during employment.

We promise the only thing we assess within your application is how you have demonstrated your suitability for the job, and nothing else.
