We are Britain’s first rewilding charity on a mission to see 30% of our land and seas rewilding by 2030. Rewilding has recently moved from being a niche idea to playing a significant role in the fight against some of the biggest global challenges we face. Rewilding Britain has been at the forefront of this change since its formation in 2015, acting as a catalyst for debate and action, and demonstrating the power of working with nature to build a green economy where people and nature thrive.
We influence policy, inspire public action and catalyse joined-up practical and financial support to help establish rewilding across Britain’s land and seas. Through our rapidly growing Rewilding Network we’re bringing together a community of rewilders - from land managers and farmers, to charities, community groups and national parks - to inspire and support each other to create a wilder, more prosperous Britain. It’s not too late - but we must act now.
We have a Vision and Strategy to 2030 and are in the process of evaluating the impact of our current strategic plan and defining our strategic objectives for 2025-2030. In 2025 we will also celebrate our 10 year anniversary.

-
Design a dashboard and reporting mechanisms for presenting the data in a way that is easy to use and understand.
-
Contribute towards the continuous improvement of processes, data and our technology to enable the charity to collect and analyse impact and monitoring data on an ongoing basis.

-
Support and collaborate with the wider team on evaluation and monitoring to instil a culture of learning and evaluation across functions

Work closely with our Data Monitoring Project team to incorporate data from our emerging Rewilding Monitoring Framework into our impact and evaluation framework.
