Summary
Are you a strategic leader with the confidence to influence across sectors and the passion to drive meaningful change for nature and people?
We’re seeking an outstanding individual to lead the Wiltshire & Swindon Local Nature Partnership (LNP) — a powerful cross-sector coalition driving nature recovery, climate resilience, and social impact across the region. This is a rare opportunity to shape one of the most ambitious regional collaborations in the country, bringing together local government, landowners, farmers, NGOs, health bodies, and communities to deliver real, lasting outcomes for nature and people.
You’ll be the visible driving force behind the LNP’s strategic direction, coordinating high-impact programmes, unlocking green finance, and championing nature-based solutions at both local and national levels. In its first year, the role will be hosted across partner organisations, offering a unique development opportunity and valuable insight into the wider environmental and political landscape.
We’re open to appointing someone with strong potential who is ready to grow into the role. A structured development pathway will be available, with clear progression milestones and corresponding salary uplifts for those who demonstrate the right skills and impact.
We’re looking for someone with a strong track record in building strategic partnerships, influencing policy, and delivering complex programmes. You’ll be an excellent communicator and relationship-builder, confident working across sectors and at senior levels. Knowledge of conservation, environmental policy, or green finance is an advantage but above all, you’ll bring energy, credibility, and a deep commitment to creating a fairer, greener future.
Why join us?
You’ll be part of a bold, purpose-led collaboration hosted by Wiltshire Wildlife Trust and supported by a network of committed partners. You’ll be working at the forefront of nature recovery in the South West, helping shape the future of Wiltshire & Swindon by turning big ideas into lasting, landscape-scale action.
Wiltshire Wildlife Trust is fully committed to safeguarding the welfare of all children, young people and adults at risk. All WWT staff will receive safeguarding training and must ensure that they comply with WWT’s safeguarding policy.
Wiltshire Wildlife Trust is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to developing an inclusive and diverse organisation, in which everyone feels supported, valued, and able to be their full selves. To achieve our vision of creating a world richer in nature, we need talented people, and more diverse people, on nature’s side.
