About the Role
We’re looking for a motivated and adaptable individual to support the delivery of environmental projects across our four key work areas: Catchment Recovery, Land Use and Water, River Restoration, and Connecting People and Rivers. This varied role offers the opportunity to contribute to a diverse range of projects, including biodiversity enhancement, water quality improvements, natural flood management, habitat creation and connectivity, river restoration, and pollution reduction. The ideal candidate will have a broad skillset and the organisational ability to work across multiple projects and tasks simultaneously. It is essential to manage your own workload and priorities effectively and communicate clearly with colleagues to deliver environmental projects. Tasks and responsibilities will vary throughout the seasons and lifecycles of projects but will involve various aspects of project delivery from conception (mapping catchments in GIS) to project scoping (landowner engagement) and capital delivery (site supervision). This is a rewarding opportunity to help restore natural processes within a catchment with significant restoration potential and to see first-hand the positive environmental impact of your work.

Requirements

Experience
Experience working on environmental or conservation projects is desirable. Ability to manage multiple projects and tasks effectively is essential.

About you
You are motivated, adaptable and organised with strong communication skills. You can work independently and as part of a team. You have a broad skillset suitable for varied environmental project delivery and are comfortable engaging with landowners and stakeholders.

Qualifications
A relevant degree or equivalent experience in environmental science, ecology, geography, or related field is preferred. Proficiency in GIS mapping is advantageous.
