About our client 

This project is funded by the Nature Networks Programme. The Heritage Fund is delivering it on behalf of the Welsh Government. 

Do you want to be part of a team leading the field in the development of private investment into nature’s recovery? 

In the past 18 months, The Trusts have been developing new approaches to funding nature’s recovery from the private sector, utilising novel revenue approaches such as nutrient neutrality credits and the voluntary carbon market amongst others. They have developed finance mechanisms to sit alongside these revenue streams such as a philanthropic loan system. They now want to scale up this work to help The Trusts and others to scale nature’s recovery across Wales. They need to turn policy into strong principles that allows us to develop guidelines and templates to help the Trusts across Wales access green finance. 

Our client need dedicated expertise and capacity to work with the Trusts to bring this work into a coherent strategy, develop models and plans that build revenues for nature’s recovery allowing much greater investment. This post is designed to provide that expertise and capacity to work alongside those Trust staff that are already committed to developing these programmes. 

Our client is the central charity which supports the federation of 46 independent Trusts working for nature’s recovery across the UK, Alderney and the Isle of Man. The Trusts’ vision is of a thriving natural world, with abundant wildlife and healthy natural habitats playing a valued role in addressing the climate and ecological emergencies, and everyone inspired to take action for nature’s recovery. 

Collectively, The Trusts have more than 900,000 members, employ 3,500 staff, look after over 2,300 nature reserves, operate 123 visitor and education centres and own 29 working farms. The role of the trust is to ensure a strong voice for wildlife at a UK level and to provide strategic leadership, support and development for The Trusts. They provide shared expertise in areas such as climate change, digital fundraising, nature-based solutions, policy and safeguarding. They facilitate UK-wide communities of practice to share learning and replicate successful approaches so that together they are more than the sum of their parts. They support the individual Trusts to be a strong force for nature in their local areas and to work together to achieve even greater impact as a collective. 

The Trusts are on a mission to bring about a people-powered nature and climate recovery by empowering people to take meaningful action for nature, and to create an inclusive society where nature matters to everyone, everywhere. They are ambitious in their desire not just to slow, but to reverse the declines in nature. Together they have developed a bold, new collective strategy which outlines their vision and the actions they will take to restore nature over the next eight years. 

Central to their strategy are their three goals which set out what they are striving to achieve by 2030 in pursuit of their vision of a thriving natural world. Goal 1 is to put nature into recovery with abundant, diverse wildlife and natural processes creating wilder land and seascapes where people and nature thrive. Goal 2 is to inspire people to take action for nature and climate, resulting in better decision-making for the environment at both local level and across the four UK nations. And Goal 3 is to enable nature to play a central and valued role in helping to address local and global problems, such as by helping tackle climate change and supporting wellbeing and education. 

Achieving these ambitious objectives means that they must develop new ways of working which increase the scale and impact of their work. Therefore, they have embarked on a programme of strategic transformations that are essential to achieving their goals, and which will result in a stronger and more effective Trust movement for the long term. They are leading the transformation programme across The Trusts including in community organising, equality, diversity and inclusion, and funding nature’s recovery. The Trusts have existed for over 100 years thanks to a strong membership base and traditional fundraising activities. 

Now, to achieve the level of funding needed to reverse nature’s decline, they need to diversify and increase their income by exploring new ways of funding such as innovative finance. 

About You 

You will be from a commercial background within private, public or charitable sector. You will have an entrepreneurial approach grounded by great commercial experience. They would expect an understanding of the green finance marketplace and that you are comfortable with legal and contract management. You will be a great communicator, with a personable style who can work with many different people across the wonderful variety of geography, business development, and activities of the Trusts.

ShelterBox is recruiting for an Insight and Reporting Officer to join our Insight team. The role will work closely with our Insight Manager, guiding and supporting our Fundraising and Communications colleagues to design, track and evaluate activities, embedding insight at each step of the way.

Our Insight team sits within our Fundraising Operations function, and together we ensure we are providing excellent, audience-driven supporter experiences, and making our data and systems work effectively across fundraising and communications activity. Over the last four years, we have seen uninterrupted growth, reaching a record-breaking global income of £26 million in 2023. This has enabled us to provide shelter and support to more people than ever before.  

This post will help to embed an insight-led, supporter-driven and evidence-based approach to communications with both potential and existing supporters. By using insight to deliver exceptional supporter experience, we will drive engagement and lifetime value of supporters. The post holder will support our Fundraising and Communications teams, from selecting and segmenting the right audiences through to reporting and evaluating our results.

It’s an exciting time to join the team, as we embark on an organisation wide Business Systems Transformation Project, that will see us onboard a new CRM in conjunction with new finance, project and HR systems. The Insight and Reporting Officer will play an important role in the next step on our journey and will have the opportunity to help shape.

In addition, they should be confident in managing multiple projects simultaneously and working with a broad set of objectives associated with fundraising and communications.

• Providing end-to-end support with Fundraising and Communications activities, supporting teams in the design, selection, review, and reporting.

• Working closely with teams across Fundraising and Communications to consolidate learnings and insight from campaigns and activities to ensure continual development of programmes and testing strategies.
• Maintaining and expanding our Insight and Evaluation Library, documenting learnings and decisions for future use.
• Support the Insight Manager to champion and embed the use of insight within ShelterBox ensuring that everyone understands how to develop, use, and apply it. 
• Ensure adherence to ShelterBox procedures and policies including those relating to data protection, safeguarding, safety, and security.
