We’re looking for a head of engagement who can bring their skills and experience to deliver that ambition. You’ll have demonstrable experience as a leader in either PPI or volunteering, be able to inspire and motivate a team and drive forward plans that will increase engagement with priority audiences.

As a strategic leader, you’ll have a proven ability in the development, implementation and evaluation of strategies and operational plans that inspire support, enable participation and deliver benefits for both the organisation and individuals.

Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.

At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.

Over the last ten years we have invested more than £71 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.

Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.

Blue Marine aims to restore health to the ocean and has advocated for large scale marine protection in Jersey since 2018. From 2021, our local team has been based on the Jersey, engaging with the fishing industry, educating local communities and children, partnering with government and local organisations, and leading local research to help inform better management. Through research and advocacy Blue Marine influenced development of the first Jersey Marine Spatial Plan and is supporting the introduction of a network of Marine Protected Areas. Our ‘snorkel trail’ and low-impact seafood initiatives have also helped to strengthen the sustainable use of Jersey’s seas.   

Blue Marine requires a Jersey Project Officer (Maternity Cover) to assist in delivering our research, education and fisheries engagement work in Jersey. The role will report to Blue Marine and be based at the National Trust for Jersey HQ.

This is an opportunity to join a highly impactful charity at the cutting edge of marine conservation, and an opportunity to support the protection of Jersey’s marine environment.

Salary: £16,800 (full time equivalent £28,000). 

Hours: Part time, three days (21 hours) per week, 9am to 5pm.  Potential to increase to four days (28 hours).

Contract: One-year, fixed term (May 2025 to May 2026)

Location: The Elms, National Trust for Jersey HQ, with quarterly travel to Blue Marine head office in London for specific meetings.

Reporting to: Channel Islands Project Manager, Blue Marine.

This role requires the individual to hold Entitled or Entitled for Work employment status for Jersey.

Application deadline: 16th March 2025 

Please send your CV and a letter explaining your skills and suitability for the role. If you would like to know more or have any questions, then we’d be happy to help.

 About the project

Jersey’s waters, with their kelp forests, seagrass and maerl beds, showcase some of the best shallow marine habitats in northern Europe and many are important ‘blue carbon’ stores. Of Jersey’s 2,455 square kilometres of territorial sea, 6.5 per cent is designated as Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), where mobile fishing gear (trawling and dredging) is prohibited, but other fishing (pots, hook and line, diving and static nets) is allowed.

Since 2018, Blue Marine has undertaken research alongside partners on-island and UK academic institutions to assess the benefits of Jersey’s existing MPAs.  This evidence underpinned our proposal for a well-managed network of MPAs closed to mobile fishing gear, to cover over 30 per cent of Jersey’s territorial waters, our overarching project goal.

In October 2023, the Jersey Government released its first draft Marine Spatial Plan, to fulfil its international obligations, under the 2022 Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, which requires 30 per cent of the environment to be protected by 2030. The MSP includes proposals for a network of MPAs covering 23 per cent of Jersey’s waters with the intention of increasing protection to 30 per cent of Jersey’s marine space by 2030. With Jersey’s MSP approved, there is now the prospect of securing tangible marine protection

The Jersey Project aims to enhance marine protection through three key interventions:

• Research: a four-year PhD, multiple MSc studies and collaborative research has built a strong evidence base for marine protection.
• Supporting low-impact fisheries: our initiative, Jersey Hand Dived was developed to improve community awareness of sustainable seafood choices and low-impact fishing practices.
• Education and engagement: our snorkel trail education programmed provides the opportunity for 420 children to be guided through an immersive snorkelling experience every year.

General Duties:

• The Project Officer will work with the Channel Islands Project Manager, wider Blue Marine team and collaborators on Jersey (and other Channel Islands) to deliver local workstreams which benefit people, nature and climate.
• The Project Officer will be based at The National Trust for Jersey, The Elms, St Mary and the post holder will be expected to integrate, support and be an active member of The National Trust for Jersey team.

• Day to day support to the Channel Island Project Manager to deliver Blue Marine’s Jersey project.

• Lead on the development of sustainable seafood initiatives such as Jersey Hand Dived (JHD).

• Deliver wider education activities and assist with local outreach such as work experience and volunteer opportunities.  

• Support Blue Marine funded marine research and monitoring which is specifically relevant to the achievement of Blue Marine’s aims.
