We’re looking for a proactive and well-organised Project Manager to lead a transformative project across Essex Wildlife Trust’s Nature Discovery Centres and nature reserves. You’ll deliver signage and interpretation that helps our sites be true gateways to experiencing nature - boosting brand awareness, enhancing the visitor experience and inspiring a greater connection to nature.
