This role requires someone full of original ideas who has a collaborative approach but also the ability to work independently, meet tight deadlines, and work on multiple projects simultaneously. As a conservation fundraising charity, we feel that an empathy and understanding of our mission and Values is important too.

We build flexibility into the way we work from day one, encouraging early conversations around options for hybrid working to enable remote connection and collaboration alongside some face-to-face working, and our 9-day fortnight working pattern is popular, supporting our staff to maintain a health work-life balance. 

We recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce, bringing new perspectives and different experiences into the workplace. Our aim is to be an inclusive employer, providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all staff, where staff can be the best they can be. We recognise that we are underrepresented in some groups, so welcome and encourage applications from minority ethnicities, those with disabilities, and all gender identities. What’s important to us in this process is your skills, knowledge and experience to enable you to do the job and that is where our focus will be to find our next new team member!
