What could my day look like?

The Education Worker role is a frontline, fast-paced and rewarding role where no two weeks will look the same. A typical day will have different activities, possibly spread between the IntoUniversity centre, partner schools and the offices of a corporate partner.

In the morning, you might be setting off with resources to run a workshop for sixth-form students in their secondary school. In the afternoon you may be setting up the classroom ahead of running Primary Academic Support for young people in your IntoUniversity centre. On other days, you may be travelling to a corporate partner to run a business simulation workshop for 15 year-olds or leading a group of final year primary school students on a campus visit for their graduation.

As an Education Worker, you’ll always be delivering the programme as part of your centre team, which means that any delivery is always a team effort.

Full time (35 hours per week)  

Fixed Term Contract to March 2027 

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 

If you are a passionate marine conservationist looking for a role that will deliver significant benefits for nature in Welsh seas with one of the UK’s best loved nature charities, then we have an exciting opportunity for you. 

We are the largest non-governmental organisation working on marine issues in the UK, and are looking for a supportive, enthusiastic and knowledgeable colleague to join our team. Despite Blue Planet and more recently the Wild Isles series, we still have a job to do, to raise the profile of the sea and all that lives within it. 

We know that our marine wildlife is under increasing pressure, and we need to do more to restore it for future generations – are you the person to help us do that? We are looking for an individual to join the Wildlife Trusts Wales team to deliver positive changes in marine recovery in Wales. 

You will be organised and motivated, able to take the initiative and lead the effective delivery of marine recovery policy and new developments in marine funding in Wales. You will have an understanding of issues facing marine wildlife. You will have experience of advocacy work and ideally an understanding of Welsh environmental legislation. You will need to understand how to achieve marine habitat and species restoration at scale. Associated with this, an awareness of the emerging area of blue finance and marine net benefit. You will be supported by UK colleagues and individuals within the five local Wildlife Trusts in Wales. 

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.

As a Disability Confident employer, we are committed to offering an interview to anyone with a disability that meets all the essential criteria for the post. Please let us know if you require any adjustments to make our recruitment process more accessible.  

RSWT are committed to increasing the diversity of its staff through its Levelling the Field recruitment pledge and will put any ethnic minority applicants that meet all the essential criteria for the post through to the next stage of recruitmen. 

At RSWT, we are committed to creating a safe environment where discrimination, bullying, and harassment are not tolerated. We expect everyone to uphold, respect, and support our zero-tolerance policy.  

Please be aware we may not accept applications if we have reason to believe they have been wholly produced using generative AI tools. 

Since 2009 we’ve been creating engaging education content to empower young people through tech for good. We are now seeking an experienced, forward-thinking educator to take the leading role in creating a brand-new, sector-defining Apps for Good course. This is a moment of profound significance for our charity and the young people we serve.

We need our new project-based education content to rise to the challenge of the rapidly evolving AI landscape. You will be the course designer responsible for defining, scoping, and creating a reimagined course that explicitly addresses the rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI); delivers on our Theory of Change in terms of developing essential and digital skills, incorporates industry engagement; takes on the social challenges most significant to young people and aligns with the highest education standards, ensuring young people are truly prepared to shape their future with technology.

This is a high-impact project and will be a brilliant opportunity to make your mark in education. This unique, short-term opportunity will make a foundational impact on a national charity and the future of thousands of young people.
