Project Manager - Seabird Recovery 

Salary: up to £45,000 (dependent on experience)  

Location: You will be based at our Head Office, St Mary’s, Isles of Scilly. Hybrid Working is available if already resident on the Isles on Scilly.  

Full time: 37.5 hours per week  

Fixed Term contract: to 31st March 2027, for the development phase of the project – possibility of extension dependent on funding 

Closing date for applications: Midnight 2 December 2025 

First interview: Week beginning 8 December 2025 

Second interview: Week beginning 15 December 2025 

We are embarking on an ambitious and landmark project to help protect and restore globally important seabird populations across the Isles of Scilly. As Project Manager, you’ll play a central role in preparing for the successful delivery of a complex and high-profile rat eradication programme, one that will have lasting benefits for wildlife, habitats, and island communities. 

We are seeking an experienced and talented Project Manager who is as comfortable managing budgets and reporting to funders as they are chatting with members of the public.

The successful candidate will excel at developing efficient processes, navigating complex logistical challenges, and bringing together diverse partners and stakeholders. You’ll be someone who thrives on problem-solving and collaboration, combining strong organisational and logistical skills with sound judgement, creativity, and the ability to build positive relationships. 

You will have experience of working with local communities and stakeholders in a collaborative and sensitive way. You will have substantial experience of working in conservation or in other equally complex situations, and will be confident managing contractors, technical specialists, and community engagement activities. Line-management responsibilities will be for the Seabird Recovery team which consists of two members of staff in first instance, but this may increase depending on project needs. 

Above all, you’ll share our passion for keeping Scilly special - and bring the drive, flexibility, and commitment needed to help us deliver a project of global ecological significance. If this sounds like you, then we look forward to your application for this exciting and significant role. 

About Us 

We are the only charity managing land for wildlife in Scilly. We have by far the greatest impact in relation to the scale of our place, being responsible for about half of the land across the Isles of Scilly. We are central to the tourism industry and the largest part of the local voluntary sector. We manage our land for rare species and habitats, for its outstanding archaeological interest, and to provide access, enjoyment and understanding to local people and visitors.

About You 

This is a pivotal role, and we’re looking for an experienced and adaptable project manager with a strong track record of delivering complex, multi-partner projects - ideally within conservation, environmental management, or similarly intricate operational settings. You will have the confidence and capability to oversee the planning, coordination, and preparation of a major seabird recovery project, ensuring that all strands of work align effectively to deliver measurable outcomes on time and within scope. 

You will combine exceptional organisational and logistical skills with sound judgement, creativity, and a calm, solutions-focused approach. Solid experience of working with the public to bring about a major project, managing contractors, technical specialists, and collaborating with project partners will be key, as will the ability to anticipate challenges, plan proactively, and adapt to evolving priorities. 

You’ll bring excellent communication and interpersonal skills, enabling you to build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, from members of the local community to project partners to technical experts and funders. You will understand the importance of collaboration and diplomacy in maintaining trust and momentum across a diverse partnership. 

Line management experience would be an advantage, as you lead and support team members through different phases of the project. You’ll be confident fostering a positive, inclusive working culture that encourages others to deliver their best work and feel part of something meaningful. 

Above all, you’ll share our passion for protecting what makes the Isles of Scilly so special. You’ll be motivated by the opportunity to make a tangible difference for seabirds, habitats, and the wider island community; helping to deliver one of the most significant conservation initiatives of its kind in the UK.

Job title: Fundraising Manager

Reports to: Fallowfield & Withington Foodbank

This is a home-based role, but applicants should live within a reasonable distance of the foodbank as occasional on-site visits will be required.

Responsible for: Fundraising activities for Fallowfield & Withington Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank

Salary: £28,000

Hours: 4 Days per week (28 hours) Fixed Term: 1 year

● Introduction:

 At F&W and Burnage Foodbanks we share a vision of a future where there is no need for people to attend foodbanks. We are working towards this ambition and are continually looking at ways to assist our foodbank users to achieve this. Meanwhile, until we reach our objective, there is still a need for emergency food assistance across our communities. This is an exciting opportunity to proactively lead and grow fundraising across both F&W and Burnage Foodbank, to help us continue to meet the emergency food needs of those most impoverished in our communities.

● Through this new organisational role, you will proactively create and grow fundraising income opportunities with individuals, community groups, local businesses and grant giving trusts and foundations. You will be at the heart of our local community, bringing our cause to life and building lasting donor relationships.

● Through your fundraising expertise, you will have a proven track record of building relationships with individuals, community groups, local businesses, trusts and foundations and other donors to achieve and exceed annual income targets and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). You will have the capacity to create and deliver compelling fundraising activities, communications, proposals and appeals that successfully engage and attract donations from new and existing supporters.

● This role will be employed and managed by F&W Foodbank, but it will equally support fundraising income growth across both F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank.

● This role will be remote but there will be an expectation that the successful candidate will meet regularly in person with both foodbanks as well as local partners and stakeholders. Some evening and weekend working may be required to fulfil the role e.g. promotion of the Foodbank, community events.

Key Responsibilities:

● Through excellent, comprehensive and considered research, you will identify and prioritise a pool of potential local Trusts and Foundations funders. Working with colleagues, you will develop authentic, compelling, creative and winning funding bids that can successfully engage new and existing Trusts and Foundations funders.  

● Through the creation and delivery of engaging and compelling fundraising activities, appeals and communications, you will grow our income and pool of individual supporters making one off or monthly donations. You will explore and implement ways of promoting our Foodbanks across the community to successfully attract an ever-greater number of individual donors.

● You will engage with local community groups, associations, events, schools and businesses to grow our fundraising reach and income.

● You will develop, establish and manage a fundraising portfolio capable of generating in excess of £150k per annum. This will include establishing and leading supporter relationships and, where appropriate, to support other senior stakeholders in leading such relationships.

● You will establish a fundraising pipeline for both F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank, incorporating a range of KPI’s that can be tracked and that will enable you to make informed projections regarding future income.

● You will review and finalise the KPIs to be set by the managers of F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank.

● Every fortnight you will meet to report on progress on an operational level, and  every quarter you will meet with representatives of both trustee boards to review progress against the fundraising project objectives outputs and KPIs. These may be in the evenings to accommodate trustee availability. Every 6 months you will input to a report for the Trussell Trust network.

● You will forge strong relationships with colleagues across the wider Trussell Trust network, sharing best practice and learning from other charities across the network. You will proactively take advantage of any fundraising training and skills development opportunities and engage with any joint fundraising opportunities.

Skills

● You will have proven and substantial fundraising experience, covering at least two of these areas: trusts fundraising, fundraising with local businesses, fundraising with individuals and community groups. 

● With excellent written and verbal communication and relationship management skills, you will inspire and motivate existing and prospective supporters, providing excellent stewardship and crafting compelling and winning funding proposals and appeals.

● You will have experience of setting, managing and reporting against fundraising KPI’s. 

● You will be tenacious and able to embrace, develop and shape a new role, working across two Foodbanks and within a matrix management structure. You will be well organised, proactive, and a self-starter who is able to self-motivate.

● You will be able to demonstrate empathy for people from disadvantaged, marginalised or socially-excluded backgrounds.
