Biomet.life is a scalable AI SaaS platform designed to help organizations map, quantify, and mitigate nature-related risks while ensuring global compliance.

Biodiversity loss is a systemic economic threat, putting 60% of global GDP at risk. Organizations struggle to address this because of fragmented ecological data, the technical difficulty of quantifying ecosystem health, and the challenge of translating environmental decline into business-relevant metrics. As global frameworks like the EU Taxonomy and the Kunming-Montreal Framework evolve rapidly, companies face increasing pressure to provide transparent, audit-ready reporting that many are currently unequipped to produce.

Biomet.life solves this through an agentic AI platform that transforms complex ecological data—from remote sensing to IoT feeds—into clear, actionable intelligence for business resilience. Our platform features an interactive AI assistant that guides users through data ingestion and stress-testing scenarios, alongside an adaptive dashboard that surfaces customized risk scores and impact forecasts. By automating the end-to-end workflow from risk modeling to the generation of compliance reports (aligned with GBF and ESRS E4), we enable companies to set science-based targets, plan nature-based restoration, and integrate forward-looking environmental scenarios directly into their strategic planning.

Role Description

The Biodiversity Business Reporting Analyst is responsible for analysing biodiversity-related disclosures produced by large corporations in sustainability reports, annual reports, ESG statements and regulatory filings. The role focuses on identifying and extracting information related to corporate biodiversity impacts, dependencies, risks, policies, targets and performance indicators, and assessing how companies report on biodiversity within emerging frameworks and standards.

A key responsibility is converting unstructured disclosure content into structured data aligned with the proprietary BIOMET biodiversity taxonomy. The analyst will develop and maintain schemas and mapping approaches that translate corporate reporting into consistent, machine-readable formats, ensuring the information can be integrated into BIOMET analytical systems.

The role also contributes to the development of proprietary AI tools designed to interpret biodiversity disclosures and support the drafting of biodiversity-related content. This includes assisting with training data preparation, annotation and validation, as well as providing subject-matter expertise to improve automated analysis and reporting capabilities. The analyst will work closely with data scientists, engineers, and sustainability specialists to support the development of scalable biodiversity data solutions.

Build and manage the digital systems that power SUNSHINE’s mission

SUNSHINE is a brand‑new charity with a bold mission: to replace loneliness with belonging and spark a grassroots joy movement across London and beyond. To grow with confidence, safety, and professionalism, we need a dedicated Digital & IT Lead to help us build, maintain, and secure the digital systems that keep SUNSHINE running.

If you love technology, problem‑solving, and creating smooth digital experiences for teams, this role is at the heart of our start‑up journey.

Why this role matters

SUNSHINE is a movement — but every movement needs strong digital foundations.

Your leadership will ensure that:

• Our cloud‑based systems are secure, organised, and easy to use.

• Our CRM and caseload systems support safe, effective service delivery.

• Our devices are configured, protected, and used responsibly.

• Our volunteers feel confident using the tools that power our work.

• SUNSHINE grows with professionalism, safety, and digital excellence.

You will help build the digital backbone of the charity.

What you’ll do

You’ll take the lead on all things digital and IT by:

• Sourcing, setting up, and managing our cloud‑based systems (CRM, caseload management, email, shared drives).

• Configuring SUNSHINE devices to ensure they are secure and used only for charity purposes.

• Maintaining digital security, access controls, and safe‑use practices.

• Troubleshooting IT issues and supporting volunteers when things go wrong.

• Creating simple guides and onboarding materials for new team members.

• Leading or assisting with digital induction sessions so everyone knows how to use our systems effectively.

• Advising the Founder on digital best practice, security, and future needs.

This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role where your expertise shapes how SUNSHINE operates every day.

What we’re looking for

You don’t need to be a senior IT professional — just someone who is confident with digital systems and enjoys helping others.

You’ll thrive here if you are:

• Tech‑savvy and curious.

• Organised and reliable.

• Calm under pressure and good at problem‑solving.

• Passionate about digital safety and good practice.

• Comfortable explaining tech in simple, friendly ways.

• Motivated by purpose, not ego.

If you love making systems work smoothly and supporting people to use them well, you’ll fit right in.

What you’ll gain

• A leadership role in shaping SUNSHINE’s digital infrastructure.

• The chance to build systems from the ground up.

• A warm, supportive, values‑driven environment.

• Real influence over how the charity operates.

• The satisfaction of knowing your work keeps SUNSHINE safe, secure, and effective.

This is a volunteer role — but it’s also a chance to build something lasting and meaningful.

Ready to help power SUNSHINE’s digital world?

If you want to help build a safe, modern, secure digital foundation for a charity with big ambitions, we’d love to hear from you.

Let’s build something safe, joyful, and beautifully connected together.

Exciting opportunity to help shape the future of the UK’s leading Badger charity 

Become a Trustee on our active board! 

Badger Trust celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2026. We are the leading voice for badgers in England and Wales, dedicated to promoting and enhancing the welfare, conservation, and protection of badgers, their setts, and their habitats. 

We have a network of over 50 local voluntary badger groups, growing all the time, supported by thousands of dedicated supporters and followers. 

We are now seeking new Trustees to join our Board.  These will support the current Trustees and Chief Executive in delivering the charity's objectives, ensuring we have the right mix of skills, experience, and people to achieve even more for badgers in the coming years. 

For these vacancies, Badger Trust is particularly interested in people with experience in charity fundraising, law, and development planning to help us achieve our goals in these areas, building on our research, citizen science, and campaigning work. 

Your skills 

Trustees with a focus on fundraising will have a strategic approach to opportunities, and might offer support through one or more of the following methods: 

- Identifying and reaching out to major donors and corporate partners 

- Assisting in writing bids for grants and trust applications 

- Offering guidance in planning and executing fundraising strategies and campaigns. 

We encourage members of badger groups to apply to ensure the group network is effectively represented. 

We are seeking applicants whose professional knowledge will bring value to our Board. 

You should be a strong strategic thinker, capable of working collaboratively, and willing to engage with the broader role of Trustee. Badger Trust values diversity and aims to broaden our Board in terms of skills, background, and life experience. 

We encourage all applications, especially from individuals of racially diverse backgrounds and those with disabilities, as these groups are currently under-represented on our Board. 

We also encourage applicants from a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds across the UK. 

Time Commitment 

The Board typically holds four to six meetings each year on Saturdays. Most of these meetings are conducted online, with two in-person meetings scheduled annually. However, there may be occasions when virtual meetings are necessary outside of the regular schedule. 

We also conduct an Annual General Meeting (AGM) or Symposium, which Trustees are expected to attend and support. The head office is located in Brighton, but in-person meetings are

generally held in central England. The 2026 Badger Trust Symposium is being held at the University of Northampton. 

In addition to routine Board activities, past and present Trustees have contributed to various initiatives and assisted with staff-led projects based on their skills, expertise, and interests. Examples of this work include assisting the creation of  our planning and development guide, updating the guide to badger rescue and rehabilitation, engaging with Government and Parliament on the Planning & Infrastructure Bill, scrutinising Government policy and commissioning information searches, taking legal action, and assisting in the recruitment and interviewing of specialised staff. 

Our Mission 

Our mission is to promote and enhance the welfare, conservation, and protection of badgers, their setts, and their habitats. 

Our Vision 

Our vision is a world where badgers are respected as part of our rich wildlife heritage and are safe from persecution. 

Chair, Rosie Wood, joined the board in 2021: 

“Being on the Board of Badger Trust brings with it plenty of opportunities to learn and collaborate with people of like mind, which I hope you would expect. But it also offers opportunities to open conversations with different decision-makers who can drive change. It gives me scope to remake our arguments in fresh and compelling ways, informed – in my case –by sharing the background of those I need to engage with. 

While we need people committed to protecting and conserving badgers, we also need them to understand those who can best help – funders, policymakers, lawmakers, and communicators. Don’t expect it to be a passive role – badgers need active friends and advocates. But it will rapidly build your skills, professional networks, and CV, and we will do our best to match your interests and availability to the Charity’s needs.

Badger Trust Vice-Chair, Phil Loveday, who joined the Board in 2023, encourages you to get in touch: 

“I joined the Badger Trust board as I just love badgers and am a member of my local badger group. I also bring extensive organisational, educational and people skills gained during my career in teaching, including as a head teacher at large secondary schools in the Midlands. 

I feel passionately that we need the next generation to have the chance to enjoy nature, and to do that, we need to protect it now — that’s what Badger Trust is all about. We need more experienced people willing to help guide the charity in the years ahead.” 

Further information 

Find out more about our work on our website, where you can also see details of our current Board. You can connect with us on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube. 

We are a registered charity and limited company, registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office for data protection compliance and with the Fundraising Regulator for fundraising compliance. We are also members of the Small Charities Coalition and NCVO for best practice, guidance, and support as part of our aim to be an effective and efficient charity. 

We encourage applicants to ensure they are familiar with the legal responsibilities of a charity Trustee, and more information can be found on the Charity Commission’s website. See Badger Trust’s registration with the Charity Commission. 

Trustee roles are voluntary and unpaid. Expenses for Board business will be reimbursed in line with our expenses policy. The final appointment to the Board depends on the election of the recommended Trustees at the AGM of Badger Trust by member groups.

Mudland is building the climate knowledge infrastructure needed to translate Indigenous and frontline intelligence into decision-ready formats for policymakers, funders, and global institutions.

Global climate policy and finance systems often overlook the structured, community-defined evidence held by Indigenous and frontline regions. This disconnect leads to adaptation funding that is misaligned with reality, treating vulnerable communities as "beneficiaries" rather than knowledge holders. In high-stakes ecosystems like the Himalayas, climate data is often extracted without being translated into the institutional language needed to influence real-world decision-making.

Mudland bridges this divide through its Climate Lab and the Himalayan Climate Watch Network. We train Indigenous researchers and storytellers to document climate indicators, developing frameworks that weave together Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) with modern climate science. By translating local evidence into usable formats for global policy and finance spaces, we ensure that frontline intelligence drives institutional action without being extracted or flattened.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Social Media & Communications Associate to help strengthen Mudland’s digital presence and storytelling across platforms.
The role will support communication around Mudland’s projects, including the Himalayan Climate Watch Network, climate storytelling initiatives, and documentary work connected to the studio.
This is a great opportunity for someone interested in climate communication, media, storytelling, and impact-driven projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Support management of Mudland’s social media platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, etc.)
• Help develop engaging posts, captions, and visual storytelling
• Assist with announcements and communication around Mudland projects
• Support outreach for initiatives such as the HCWN Indigenous Climate Knowledge Fellowship
• Help grow the online community and engagement around Mudland’s work
• Assist in coordinating social media content with partner organisations

Who This Role Is For

We are looking for someone who:
• Has an interest in climate, storytelling, media, or social impact
• Enjoys working with social media and digital communication
• Has a creative eye for visuals and storytelling
• Is organised and comfortable working remotely
• Is proactive and open to experimenting with new ideas
Experience with social media tools or design platforms is helpful but not required.

What You Will Gain

• Experience working with an international storytelling and climate initiative
• Exposure to global conversations around climate, culture, and media
• Opportunities to develop a creative communications portfolio
• Collaboration with journalists, filmmakers, researchers, and climate practitioners

Minimum Hours per Week:

4-6 hours per week
