Crynodeb
As part of a partnership of landowners, Forestry England have secured development funding through DEFRA’s Landscape Recovery scheme to develop a new landscape scale project, creating a new model for integrated land management in the Upper Irthing Catchment.
This role will work as an integral part of the Project Team during the remainder of the 2-year funded development period to develop detailed delivery plans for long term management of the project area, as well as proposals for monitoring and funding those management proposals. The successful candidate will report to the Project manager and the project partnership (comprised of landowners and other key stakeholders) on their own key areas of work. These plans will encompass all aspects of the future land management of the project area, but of most relevance to this role will be developing or supporting the development of:
long term monitoring systems and programmes,
delivery plans for habitat restoration, creation and enhancement work
Species recovery plans
landscape resilience (e.g. wildfire, flood, drought, biosecurity) plans
access improvement and management plans
stakeholder engagement plans
In all this the officer will be supported by other team members, especially the Project manager, and in turn will support other team members with their areas of responsibilities as required. All project team members will liaise closely with project partners, especially with landowners where plans affect their land holding directly or indirectly.
Where you’ll work…
Kielder Forest is a hub of nature recovery, home to breeding populations of hen harrier, osprey, pine marten and red squirrel, all monitored and supported in their recovery as part of a diverse, multi-purpose forest. Projects such as the restoration of the Border Mires, native woodland restoration at Kielder Wildwood, reintroduction of the water vole and others are helping to make this landscape, in conjunction with our partners, a leading location for wildlife to thrive.
Forestry England have a successful heritage of nature recovery and habitat restoration in Kielder Forest, supported by our National leads, local partnerships, long-term monitoring, and academic research. This project is building on this established heritage in a new, targeted, partnership approach through the Landscape Recovery funding scheme.
