We deliver a range of awareness raising workshops for young people in the community and training on domestic violence for professionals in the voluntary and statutory sector.

PRIMARY TASK

The post is instrumental in overseeing the delivery of a comprehensive package of services and care for women in our refuges. To provide a safe environment and a service that is appropriate to the needs of young BME women particularly those from South Asian, Turkish and Middle Eastern communities and to support ex-clients following resettlement.

This is a self-employed position on a fixed-term contract until March 2026. The successful candidate will not be entitled to employee benefits such as pension, sick pay, or holiday pay.

As a self-employed contractor, you are responsible for managing your own tax and National Insurance contributions. You will be required to invoice the organisation for your work, and payment will be made within 21 days of receipt of a monthly invoice.

This is a home-based role with flexible working hours. However, you will be expected to attend meetings within Barts Health NHS Trust and travel within the community as required.

The National Landscapes Association represents the UK’s 46 National Landscapes – legally protected places where nature and people thrive together. We lead and champion action to protect and restore these special landscapes for the benefit of everyone.

We’re looking for a Data and Evidence Officer to support our work on the Gower Landscape Connections project and across the wider Association. If you’re passionate about using data to tackle the climate and nature crises, and can turn complex information into powerful insight, this could be the role for you.

You’ll be responsible for sourcing, analysing and mapping ecological, climate and socio-economic data to inform practical conservation planning. Working closely with the Gower team, as well as the Association’s Nature-based Solutions programme, you’ll help develop systems that drive landscape-scale action. You’ll also play a central role in maintaining and evolving our GIS tools, supporting bids for major nature recovery funding.

We’re looking for someone with experience handling both statistical and spatial data, who communicates clearly and can collaborate across teams. You should be as comfortable working with detailed evidence as you are thinking strategically about long-term impact. If you care deeply about nature, evidence, and equitable solutions, we’d love to hear from you.

Swyddog Data a Thystiolaeth – Cysylltiadau Tirwedd Gŵyr

Mae Cymdeithas Tirweddau Cenedlaethol yn cynrychioli 46 o Dirluniau Cenedlaethol y DU – lleoedd sydd wedi’u diogelu’n gyfreithiol lle mae natur a phobl yn ffynnu gyda’i gilydd. Rydym yn arwain ac yn hyrwyddo camau i ddiogelu ac adfer y tirweddau arbennig hyn er budd pawb.

Rydym yn chwilio am Swyddog Data a Thystiolaeth i gefnogi ein gwaith ar brosiect Cysylltiadau Tirwedd Gŵyr ac ar draws gwaith ehangach y Gymdeithas. Os ydych chi’n angerddol am ddefnyddio data i fynd i’r afael â’r argyfyngau hinsawdd a natur, ac yn gallu troi gwybodaeth gymhleth yn fewnwelediad pwerus, gallai’r rôl hon fod yn addas i chi.

Byddwch yn gyfrifol am ddod o hyd i ddata ecolegol, hinsawdd a chymdeithasol-economaidd, ei ddadansoddi a’i fapio i lywio cynllunio cadwraeth ymarferol. Gan weithio’n agos gyda thîm Gŵyr, yn ogystal â rhaglen Atebion yn Seiliedig ar Natur y Gymdeithas, byddwch yn helpu i ddatblygu systemau sy’n sbarduno gweithredu ar raddfa dirwedd. Byddwch hefyd yn chwarae rhan ganolog yn y gwaith o gynnal a datblygu ein hoffer GIS, gan gefnogi ceisiadau am gyllid ar gyfer adfer natur.

Rydym yn chwilio am rywun sydd â phrofiad o reoli data ystadegol a gofodol, sydd yn cyfathrebu’n glir ac yn gallu cydweithio ar draws timau. Dylech fod cystal wrth weithio gyda thystiolaeth fanwl ag ydych chi wrth feddwl yn strategol am effaith hirdymor. Os ydych chi’n poeni’n ddwfn am natur, tystiolaeth, ac atebion teg, hoffem glywed gennych.
