Job description

Based at: Elm Tree Court, Devizes with travel across Wiltshire and some home working

Are you passionate about wildlife and looking to build a career in nature recovery?

We're looking for a Nature Recovery Project Officer to join our ambitious Nature Recovery Directorate. This is an exciting opportunity to work across a diverse range of projects, supporting ecological surveys, species monitoring, farm clusters, conservation events and project delivery that are helping restore nature at scale.

No two days are the same. One day you could be surveying farmland birds, supporting ecological monitoring at Great Chalfield or working alongside volunteers in the field; the next you might be organising a farmer workshop, managing ecological data or helping deliver one of our landscape recovery projects.

We'll provide training, mentoring and opportunities to develop your ecological, project management and engagement skills, making this an ideal role for someone looking to take the next step in a conservation career.
