This role will take forward new project work primarily focussed on farming and landowner engagement alongside positive interventions around water and land management, for the benefit of a wide range of species and habitats.
Farming resilience, water level management, diffuse and point source pollution will frame a programme of capital works aimed at improving the waterways and connected landscapes across the East Riding. More broadly the aim will be to deliver our blueprint for nature's recovery looking at connections between farming and the region's spring fed chalk streams, man-made drainage systems and wildlife recovery, along with links to other initiatives and opportunities such as the Local Nature Recovery Strategy and the city of Hull's Living with Water Programme.
We are looking for a committed and adaptable individual who has experience working with landowners and land managers, a good practical understanding of land management in a wetland environment, and a demonstrable ability to deliver, monitor and report on funded projects. You will have good people and time management skills, a good understanding of and ability with relevant digital systems, and a passion for nature conservation. A full UK driving licence will be essential for travelling to sites across the catchment area.
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK's fastest growing nature conservation organisations and seeks to appoint a Project Officer for Hull and the East Riding.
