About Us 

The Wildlife Trusts are a federated movement of 46 charities, supported by a central charity, the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts (RSWT). Together we have over 900,000 members, 32,500 volunteers and 3,400 staff across the UK. We are at an exciting moment in our 110-year history, with the implementation of an ambitious new strategy, setting out a vision of nature in recovery, with abundant, diverse wildlife and natural processes creating wilder landscapes where people and nature thrive. 

Wildlife Trusts have restored and care for some of the most special places for wildlife in the UK. Collectively we manage more than 2,600 nature reserves, operate 123 visitor and education centres and own 29 working farms. We are in the top ten largest landholders in the UK. We undertake research, we stand up for wildlife and wild places under threat, and we help people access nature. 

The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. We recognise that this will require big, bold changes in the way The Wildlife Trusts work. 

RSWT are seeking an innovative and strategic lead to head key elements of their ‘Evidence Emergency’ project. This initiative aims to enhance our approach to using evidence in conservation, improving data-driven decisionmaking through the establishment of a Centre of Excellence for Evidence-based Conservation. The role involves co-ordinating and scaling innovation efforts, managing digital and data projects, embedding a skills bank and competency framework across the federation, fostering internal communication and knowledge sharing, and developing long-term sustainability strategies. The ideal candidate will have a excellent background in project management, digital technologies, and data analytics within conservation, as well as great communication and collaboration skills. Throughout the project you will liaise with the Project Lead at Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust, Self-assessment Tool/Competencies Lead at Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust and the Project Delivery Support Officer at Surrey Wildlife Trust. 

About the Evidence Emergency project: 

The Evidence Emergency project is a critical initiative within the Wildlife Trusts federation aimed at addressing the urgent need for robust, data-driven decision-making in conservation efforts. This project, run in partnership across several trusts, recognises the growing importance of digital technologies and data analytics in understanding and protecting wildlife and habitats across the UK. 

The project’s main goals include enhancing the collection, analysis, and sharing of ecological data across the Wildlife Trusts network, as well as developing innovative digital solutions to support conservation work. It seeks to build capacity for data-driven decision-making while fostering a culture of innovation and knowledge sharing across the federation. A key component of the project is the establishment of a Centre of Excellence for Evidencebased Conservation, which will drive long-term improvements in how evidence is used in conservation efforts. 

The Centre of Excellence for the Wildlife Trusts is expected to be a central hub that enhances digital capabilities and supports evidence-based conservation practices across the Trusts. It will bring together resources, foster innovation and scaling of ideas generated across the federation, and improve digital skills through specialised training, tools, and consulting services. The Centre of Excellence will serve as a collaborative hub, promoting best practices, facilitating knowledge sharing, delivering projects and developing strategic partnerships to drive impactful conservation efforts.

This will involve setting up governance structures, developing resources, scaling pilots into live services and continuously improving offerings based on feedback. Additionally, you will be responsible for developing and implementing long-term sustainability strategies for innovation initiatives.

Hospice at Home’s core service is its skilled team of Registered Nurses and Healthcare Assistants who provide exceptional care and support in people’s last year of life and at end of life, also providing additional services such as Lymphoedema, Bereavement and Family Support, Befriending, Occupational Therapy and Complementary Therapy.

We provide individualised care and support to improve quality of life and our end of life care helps facilitate a peaceful and dignified death in the home and support to those who are bereaved.

Although we receive some funding from the NHS, we need to raise over 85% of our running costs in order to ensure that this vital help is available when needed and remains free of charge to patients and their families. Our Fundraising team plays a huge part in raising these vital funds.

Our clinical service area covers a mixture of urban and rural communities, a region of approximately 1,500 square miles throughout North and East Cumbria.
