Job description

About The Role

This role involves:

  • assisting the Reserve team with all seasonal management activities including reedbed, wet grassland, ponds, scrapes and ditches, hides, paths and boardwalks
  • ·operating agreed machinery safely in order to carry out management activities e.g. Brushcutter work when required (if appropriate qualification is held).
  • helping maintain and clean paths, signs, benches, bins, leaning rails and gates
  • working with a variety of hand tools safely and correctly, observing and applying health and safety regulations at all times
  • taking due care for the safety, welfare and enjoyment of the visiting public
  • you may be asked to undertake related ad hoc tasks
  • Engaging with visitors to educate them on the work that we are doing and the tasks in which you are involved

About You

This role will suit you if:

You have a can-do attitude and are happy to help us in all weathers, and are both a practical person and physically fit. Having experience or qualifications in some habitat management would be helpful, particularly brushcutter, experience, but a support of WWTs work and a keenness to learn is more important. It’s a closely-working team, however, the ability to work under your own initiative and being self-motivated is also needed. Having, or being happy to develop, the confidence to engage our visitors with the work of WWT is also a key part of this role. Please note that this role is currently only open to those aged 18+.

About Us

We’re WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whether they’re taking a new visitor under their wing, or conducting ground-breaking research further afield, our team are second to none. And there’s nothing we love more than watching them soar.

Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. So, the only question left is, what role will you play?

Why you'll love volunteering at WWT

  • Feel good knowing you are helping to restore wetlands, and our world
  • Be surrounded and inspired by like-minded wetland lovers
  • Hear from the people who inject their energy, passion and expertise into wetlands and wildlife - talks, walks, webinars, tea and cake...
  • Free entry to all our wetland centres, including your family
  • Volunteer discount on shopping and memberships
  • Access to webinars and practical information to help you manage daily life
