About Us

The Wildlife Trusts are a grassroots movement of people from a wide range of backgrounds and all walks of life, who believe that we need nature and nature needs us. We have more than 945,000 members, over 33,000 volunteers, 4,100 staff and 600 trustees. There are 46 individual Wildlife Trusts, each of which is a place-based independent charity with its own legal identity, formed by groups of people getting together and working with others to make a positive difference to wildlife and future generations, starting where they live and work.

Every Wildlife Trust is part of The Wildlife Trusts federation and a corporate member of the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts, a registered charity in its own right founded in 1912 and one of the founding members of IUCN – the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. Taken together this federation of 47 charities is known as The Wildlife Trusts.

The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. We recognise that this will require big, bold changes in the way The Wildlife Trusts work, not least in how we mobilise others and support them to organise within their own communities.

Prospectus is delighted to be supporting our client in a search for a highly skilled Senior Project Manager - Fulfilment to lead the end‑to‑end transformation of fulfilment operations. This is a critical, high‑stakes programme to transition a long‑standing fulfilment provider that underpins fundraising campaigns, banking and donor communications, warehouse operations, merchandise, health information distribution and call handling. The role will safeguard over £2m of annual income while ensuring continuity, compliance and an excellent supporter experience.

As the senior delivery lead, you’ll independently design and drive the programme from discovery and tender through to supplier mobilisation and stabilisation. Given the charity’s longstanding relationship with its current provider, you’ll need to be investigative, intuitive and comfortable operating where documentation may be incomplete.

You’ll act as the central project manager and driver, coordinating multiple teams and complex dependencies across Fundraising, Supporter Care, Technology, Finance and Governance, while managing supplier relationships with authority and confidence. With no direct line management, this role relies on influence, judgement and the ability to challenge timelines and expectations constructively, particularly where pace could introduce unnecessary risk.

This opportunity suits an experienced programme or fulfilment leader who has successfully transitioned complex operational services before and understands the risks inherent in income processing and supporter journeys. You may come from the charity or commercial sector, but you’ll bring credibility, resilience and a sharp eye for process improvement and opportunity. If you thrive in ambiguity, can balance urgency with rigour, and want to deliver a programme that truly matters, we’d love to hear from you. Hybrid working applies, with some London Bridge attendance and supplier site visits.

To apply please submit your CV only in the first instance. You may also be asked to complete a supporting statement if you do progress further in the recruitment process.
 
As a specialist Recruitment Practice Prospectus are committed to building inclusive and diverse organisations, and welcome applications from all sections of the community. Prospectus invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you in your application.
