About Us
Norfolk Wildlife Trust is the county’s largest environmental charity, working for the protection and enhancement of Norfolk’s wildlife and wild places. We protect and restore our county's wild spaces by managing our nature reserves, working in partnership throughout the landscape and inspiring people to enjoy and care for Norfolk's nature through projects, education activities, events and campaigns.
This is an exciting time for Norfolk Wildlife Trust. Wildlife needs us now, more than ever. And changes are afoot that will help us do more for wildlife right across the landscape. Wildlife needs bigger, better and more connected places to live. And policies are beginning to change in our favour. There are new funding streams in biodiversity, carbon, nutrients and water. And there are new sources of income from businesses. This, coupled with a growing public understanding of the value of nature means that there are many new opportunities for nature’s recovery in Norfolk.
We have bold ambitions to harness these changes. In addition to managing over 60 sites for wildlife, we are building a Nature Recovery team, who will achieve sustainable nature recovery at scale across Norfolk.
About the Nature Recovery Team
Our Nature Recovery Team will protect and recover biodiversity on land and at sea, increase the area of land managed and restored for nature across Norfolk and connect wild spaces for nature’s recovery.
To achieve this, we will work alongside a wide variety of landowners, businesses, conservation organisations, town planners, funders and communities.
And this is where you come in!
About You
We are looking for people to fill a variety of roles, at a range of levels. You might be ready to take the next step in your career or be looking for a more senior role.
Wildlife and people are at the heart of what we do. You will combine conservation expertise with pragmatism.
You are skilled in seeing areas of mutual benefit and experienced at influencing others to benefit our wildlife. Vitally, you are a great communicator and enjoy working in partnership.
We are values-led and work with integrity: how we do things is just as important as what we do.
We know that we can secure a thriving world for future generations that offers a stable climate, clean water, abundant food, health and happiness.
Will you join us?
Closing date for applications is 17th February 2025.
