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 944,000 members, over 38,000 volunteers, 3,600 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.
About You
Do you want to help to develop and implement a ground-breaking programme to restore temperate rainforest across the west of the UK? Are you passionate about systematically collecting, analysing and communicating data to support the delivery of nature’s recovery? We are looking for an organised and collaborative monitoring officer to help us implement one of the largest nature-based solutions programmes to date. We need you to help us to tackle the climate change and nature crises.
You will work with other members of the Temperate Rainforest Programme Team to develop and implement a bespoke monitoring programme to systematically capture and communicate data that will enable us to measure and demonstrate the impact of The Wildlife Trusts’ UK Temperate Rainforest Programme – on biodiversity, climate change mitigation and adaptation, local communities and the economy as well as supporting monitoring on other landscape scale initiatives.
We are looking for a technical specialist who understands and cares about the positive contribution that large scale woodland creation can make to nature’s recovery and to efforts to reduce and adapt to climate change. This role will implement and support monitoring arrangements for The Wildlife Trusts’ UK Temperate Rainforest programme and at the Wildlife Trusts’ Rothbury Estate in Northumberland. You will be organised and motivated with excellent analytical and project delivery skills, including an understanding of different ecological, social and land-management monitoring approaches, as well as an interest in evidence relating to woodlands, biodiversity and climate change adaptation. Key to this role will be familiarity with the collection, processing and storage of ecological data and the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in its analysis, sharing and communication.
The Wildlife Trusts value passion, respect, trust, integrity, pragmatic activism and strength in diversity. Whilst we are passionate in promoting our aims, we are not judgmental and are inclusive. We particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented within our sector, including people from minority backgrounds and people with disabilities. We are committed to creating a movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities.
The Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults at risk. For applicable roles, applicants must be willing to undergo checks with past employers and Disclosure and Barring Service checks at the eligible level.
