Company Description
We would love you to join us in being part of the Durrell team.
As a leading conservation organisation, we have an important job in saving species from extinction and creating a wilder, healthier, more colourful world.
It takes a great team to save wildlife and we need a wide range of skills to make it happen. Everyone at Durrell plays their part – whether they deliver conservation initiatives, engage with our supporters, promote our brand, or look after our people.
Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is an international conservation charity, headquartered at Jersey Zoo in the Channel Islands, working to save species from extinction through "intensive care" breeding of threatened species across the globe, rewilding of ecosystems, and the training of the next generation of conservation heroes. Durrell leads some of the world’s longest running and most successful species and habitat recovery programmes.
Established by author and conservationist Gerald Durrell in 1959, Durrell’s aim is for more diverse and resilient natural landscapes in which species can thrive and people can enjoy a deeper connection with nature.
Durrell delivers its conservation mission through our three integrated core areas of operation:
•Field Programmes: conservation action where it is needed most.
•Conservation Knowledge: training future conservation practitioners, enabling people to more closely connect with nature, delivering the science guiding Durrell’s mission and measuring our impacts.
•Jersey Zoo: a centre of excellence in animal husbandry, research, training, and education.
With a track record of more than 50 years, Durrell leads some of the world’s longest running and most successful species and habitat recovery programmes. The quality of our work is equally as important as how we deliver it. Our values underpin how we approach our work and the work environment we create.
Position
Durrell is looking to recruit three Trustees with skills in:
(i)Human Resources
(ii)Legal
(iii)Public Affairs Communications
The positions will report to the Board Chair.
Volunteering as a trustee is a rewarding opportunity to use your skills, experience and insight to make a meaningful difference, shaping strategies that protect biodiversity and becoming part of an impactful conservation institution.
Trustees attend Board meetings held quarterly in Jersey. We value the depth of connection that comes from meeting in person, while recognising the importance of flexibility through virtual attendance.
As a trustee, you will:
·Safeguard the charity’s mission and values, helping ensure it is well governed, compliant and able to thrive for the long term.
·Help shape the future, contributing your insight and judgement to strategic decisions that guide the charity’s direction and impact.
·Provide thoughtful oversight, supporting the responsible and effective use of resources.
·Be a powerful advocate, championing the charity’s work, purpose and values and helping extend its reach within the community.
This is an opportunity to step back from day‑to‑day delivery and contribute at a strategic level, offering challenge, encouragement and guidance, while being part of a committed board united by a shared belief in Durrell’s work.
If you would like to support our mission and vital conservation work, then we would love to hear from you.

·Act as a valued sounding board to senior leaders on people related risks and opportunities.

·Legal experience in a corporate, commercial, charity, regulatory or governance environment.
·Strong understanding of risk, compliance and governance principles.
·Ability to advise the board on governance matters and support sound decision making.

·Support the enhancement/further development of the charity’s reputation, messaging and public profile.
·Offer insight into reaching and engaging key audiences and stakeholders.
·Act as an ambassador for the charity’s mission and impact in line with our organisational values.

We are looking for individuals who can provide support and challenge in a positive and constructive way to enable the Executive leadership team to deliver DWCT’s strategic goals.
Requirements

About Us
Adventures for Animals was established as a fundraising initiative of IAPWA to empower passionate individuals to explore the world whilst changing it for animals in need.

As we continue to grow across the UK and internationally, we are seeking a Volunteer Treasurer to help steward our finances with integrity, clarity, and care.
This is a vital leadership role within the Society — perfect for someone who values heritage, community, and good governance.
About the Role
The Treasurer oversees the financial health of the Lyonic Scots Clan Society, ensuring our cultural projects, events, and membership activities are supported by sound financial management.
You will work closely with the Chair, Secretary, and Council to maintain transparent, accurate records and help guide the organisation’s financial decisions.

Manage incoming membership fees and donations
Prepare simple financial reports for the Council
Oversee budgeting for events and cultural projects
Ensure compliance with UK charity and community‑group financial standards
Support the annual financial review

You’ll be a great fit if you:
Are UK‑based
Have experience in bookkeeping, finance, or managing budgets
Are organised, reliable, and comfortable handling figures
Can communicate clearly with the Council and membership team
Care about Scottish culture, heritage, and community building
Want to contribute your skills to a meaningful cultural organisation

A leadership role within a growing cultural organisation
Experience in charity‑style financial management
A chance to support Scottish heritage and community identity
Flexible volunteering you can fit around your life
A warm, respectful team who value your contribution
Help Guide the Future of the Clan
