Peat Project Officer - Fixed Term to 31 March 2027
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK’s fastest growing nature conservation organisations and seeks to appoint a Peat Project
Officer.
This is an exciting opportunity to join our Peat programme and play a role in delivering several large projects. As a member of
our busy, dynamic Restoration Team, you’ll lead on surveying damaged peatlands, preparing restoration plans and maps, contractor
management, monitoring restoration, and liaising with stakeholders.
We’d love to hear from you if you have experience of working in land management, ecological field surveys and practical use of
GIS. You will enjoy a mix of being outdoors in all weathers and desk-based work such as mapping and report writing. You’ll be
proficient in IT and should have the ability to communicate with enthusiasm, tact and diplomacy, both in writing and verbally. We
have a variety of projects and workstreams underway at once so organisation, a common-sense approach to problem solving and the
ability to respond to changing circumstances at short notice are essential for success in this role.
A full driving licence will be essential for travelling to remote locations.
How to apply:
Please submit an up-to-date CV and supporting statement. When writing your supporting statement, please ensure you describe your
relevant knowledge, skills and experience aligned to the Person Specification within the Job Description. Please be aware that if
you only submit a CV, your application may not be considered.
Please DO NOT include any personal details (name, address etc) on your supporting statement.
Closing date: Tuesday 28th April at midnight
Interview dates: Monday 18th May and Tuesday 19th May
Please note that applications received after the closing deadline may not be considered. The Trust regrets that it is unable to
give feedback on unsuccessful applications.
We are committed to creating a Movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities. We value diversity
and are committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone is able to be themselves and to reach their full potential. We
want our people to flourish, just like nature.
