We are looking for an experienced and dynamic Project Manager to join us for an exciting peatland project made possible through the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Special features of the role

The Project Manager will be responsible for the delivery of the development phase of the Flagship Peatlands project.  This is a multi-departmental project for CWT with a number of beneficial partnerships.  To provide a coordinating role to pull the various components of the project together and ensure that it is managed as a single project delivering a range of interlinked outcomes.

Job Purpose

The purpose of the job is to co-ordinate the Trust project development team and the project partners to inform the development of a 2nd stage application for the Flagship Peatlands project to the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF).

About the Project

Peatlands are an unappreciated ‘cinderella’ habitat, but are of huge significance in Cumbria in addressing flooding, climate change and biodiversity loss.  While Cumbria Wildlife Trust have been the county leaders in the restoration of peatland habitats for over a decade, this new significant project will aim to make a step change in the public understanding and appreciation of this internationally important habitat, which Cumbria is so important for. 

Who we are looking for

Our ideal candidate will be an excellent communicator and have a strong project management background, with the ability to lead a cross-functional team in a collaborative and supportive way. If you are a motivated individual with a passion for conservation and project management, we would love to hear from you!
