Job description

We’re WWT, the charity for wetlands and wildlife. We’re on a mission to restore wetlands because they are a wondrous solution to our world's problems. Together we will unlock their power – and help nature burst back to life. Because when wetlands flourish, all life will flourish.

We believe the best way for people to understand and connect to wetlands is to experience them, so we bring awe-inspiring nature up close. Our enthusiasm for what we do motivates others to support our cause and ultimately helps save wetlands and their wildlife. You will be contributing to this aspect of our work by assisting the Education department with the delivery of outdoor workshops for schools and other educational groups.

No previous knowledge is required as training and equipment will be provided. However, this role will suit you if you have:

  • A good basic knowledge of UK wildlife, conservation and nature.
  • An enthusiasm for the natural world and sharing this with others.
  •  The ability to communicate effectively with children.
  • Willingness to work outside in most weather conditions. Please note the role will require some lifting, bending and other reasonable physical activities.
  • Excellent and reliable time management to ensure that sessions run time.
  • Ability to work well with other WWT Martin Mere staff and volunteers.
  • A positive, confident and welcoming disposition.

 

Please apply for this role via the WWT website.
