We are also motivated to ensure that the role’s salary is reviewed to meet market expectations as the role grows, dependent on funding.

This role needs an exceptional candidate who enjoys making a role their own, who is motivated by turning strategy into impactful action and who finds fulfilment in supporting others to achieve.

The COO will ensure that;

• We secure ongoing, long term financial resources, creating stability and underpinning growth, and scaling into operations in multiple regions, nationally
• We grow our staffing to provide a steady infrastructure and achieve our strategic objectives, including creating operations, fundraising, communications and research teams, and increasing our field team.
• We retain our relational, open, authentic, personable, dynamic, collaborative, innovative culture as we grow.

Who We're Looking For

We’re seeking an emotionally intelligent, commercially competent, and values-driven leader who can bring clarity, stability, and energy in a fast-paced and mission-led environment. You will thrive in turning strategy into action and impact, and in driving Wild in the City forward in scaling our delivery and leadership on a national scale.

You will bring:

• Proven experience in operational and strategic leadership
• Strong financial and commercial acumen, including income generation, budgeting, and long-term planning
• A successful track record of managing people, partnerships, and multi-disciplinary teams
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills across staff, volunteers, partners, and board members
• Emotional resilience, sound judgement, and a calm, authentic presence
• A genuine connection to our mission and values

We welcome people from all backgrounds to fulfill the role of COO. We are mindful of the lack of diversity within senior leadership in the environmental field and encourage those from Global Majority backgrounds to apply.

Why Join Us?
This is an exciting time to join Wild in the City, we hope that you will make an application. As COO, you’ll play a central role in shaping the next chapter of our development - growing our influence, supporting Black leadership in nature, and helping transform access to the natural world for communities of colour.
