The Organisation

We are the Marine Conservation Society, a UK charity fighting for a cleaner, better-protected, healthier ocean: one we can all enjoy.

Right now, our ocean is at a tipping point. We’re polluting our waters and destroying precious habitats. We're harming the species that live there. This is reducing the ocean's ability to help fight the climate crisis. While a third of UK seas are protected on paper, less than 1% are well managed. We are determined to change this. Using people-powered action and with science on our side, we defend habitats and species, working with communities, businesses and governments to encourage ocean-based climate action solutions across the UK.

We are now looking for a Senior Philanthropy Manager to join us on a permanent basis, working 28-35 hours per week.

The Benefits

- Salary of up to £44,000 per annum (pro rata for part-time)

If these values resonate with you, then you can help us to protect our ocean and all that depend on it; the wildlife, the people and, now, our planet.
