Location: Slimbridge - Hybrid
Salary: £42,580 per annum
Vacancy Type: 12-month Fixed Term contract
Hours: Full Time, 37.5 hours per week
Function: Engaging visitors and communities with wetlands

About The Role

Do you have a track record of developing and delivering experiences for visitors in the natural environment, arts, culture or attraction sector? Do you want to enable WWT to captivate our audiences as Head of Interpretation & Programming? If so, we would love to hear from you.

Reporting to the Director of Operations you will work alongside the Head of Experience Development, Head of Living Collections and Head of Learning to support sites to develop and deliver inspiring experiences for our visitors which connect them with our cause.

You will be the lead specialist advisor for interpretation and programming, and along with your team, play a critical role in supporting the development of excellent visitor experiences across all our sites, creating opportunities for people to experience nature in ways that inspire and move them and embedding nature connectedness in our programmed approach.

About You

We are seeking an individual with:

  • Extensive experience in the development and delivery of events, visitor experiences and engagement in the natural environment, arts and culture or attractions sectors.
  • Ability to think strategically and identify areas where experiences can support the delivery of organisational strategy.
  • Experience of building partnerships with external creatives and organisations.
  • Ability to lead, inspire and motivate teams, both in a direct and matrix management capacity.
  • Strong experience of managing annual budgets and projects up to £500k
  • Strong experience of writing creative briefs, managing creative consultants and designers.
  • Excellent communication, influencing and negotiating skills including internally at a senior level and externally with partners.

While this post is based in Slimbridge Wetland Centre with the opportunity for hybrid working, it is expected that the role would work from site twice a week and as required for key meetings.

About Us

We’re WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. So, the only question left is, what role will you play?

 Why you’ll love working at WWT

  • Wake up every day knowing your work is helping to restore wetlands, and our world
  • Be surrounded and inspired by our team of passionate, dedicated people
  • 33 days annual leave (which goes up to 38 days after 5 years of service) – this includes bank holidays and you have flexibility to take those days whenever you want
  • Free entry to all our wetland centres, including your family
  • Free car parking and secure bike storage areas
  • Colleague discount on shopping and memberships
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Contributory pension scheme
  • Life Assurance of three times your salary, for peace of mind for your loved ones
  • Independent personal, workplace and financial advice from Care first
