Base pay range

With a passion for wildlife and access, you’ll enjoy working with nature and want to inspire and motivate others. You’ll help to make a range of important habitats for wildlife even better for nature and make everyone feel welcome at our places.

The project aims to restore 500 hectares of habitats, reconnect fragmented ecosystems and empower people from all backgrounds to train in nature recovery. Trainees and volunteers will get hands-on experience at a new hub, hosted at Ty Mawr farm, which will also help the wider community connect with nature through countryside skills.

This is a great opportunity to drive an ambitious project funded by the Nature Networks Fund which will greatly improve habitats for nature, offer opportunities for people to develop skills in the countryside sector and to inspire more people to get outside.

Based in our estate office in Libanus, you’ll cover a range of sites across the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. This is a part time opportunity offering 22.5 hrs per a week and if offered as a 31 month fixed term contract.

This role is available from August 2025, however we may be able to consider an earlier start date to fit with the successful candidates availability.

This project is funded by the Nature Networks Programme. It is being delivered by the Heritage Fund, on behalf of the Welsh Government.

What it's like to work here

You’ll join an upbeat and dynamic team, who are passionate about nature, and creating an inclusive and progressive place to work, visit and volunteer.

You’ll be a key role in the Bannau Brycheiniog portfolio which covers a large area in south Wales stretching from Rhaeadr in mid Wales to Gower on the south Coast

What you'll be doing

As Project Manager, you’ll be responsible for managing the project team and ensuring the project achieves its ambitious targets. You’ll run the Project Board, and work with the local team, national specialists and partners such as NRW and Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, amongst others. You’ll be moving the project from a planning application to reality.

You can view the full role profile for this role in the document attached. You don't need to have all of the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what’s possible in this role.

Who we're looking for

• successful experience of leading projects through all stages and across all areas of project management responsibility including leading procurement, and matrix management.

• experience of working on high value Heritage Lottery or similarly funded projects
• experience of working with external partners in developing and delivering projects
• a confident communicator, working with a wide range of people both internally and externally
• adept at managing your time, costs and quality with a busy and varied workload, with some experience of managing small projects.
• champion inclusion and always think everyone welcome
