Job reference: WaREN Project Officers (1x Mid Wales and 1x South Wales)

WaREN is engaged in developing a framework for tackling invasive species across Wales. We are developing linkages between stakeholders who are taking action on invasive species, and also increasing public engagement to raise awareness of invasive species through effective science communication and sharing best practices. This project will focus on new areas where it can make a positive impact on communities. This includes improving the conditions for native species, and pollinators so that they can thrive, through the removal of invasive non-native species. For more information click here.

We are recruiting two part-time project officers, one to work in the Mid Wales area with a focus on the areas of Welshpool and Llanidloes and one to work in the South Wales area with a focus on the areas of Swansea, Cardiff and Merthyr Tydfil.

You would be employed by North Wales Wildlife Trust. WaREN is a partnership project being delivered by North Wales Wildlife Trust and working across all of Wales.

This is a home-based role with the need for the successful applicant to use their own transport to travel within either the Mid Wales or South Wales areas depending on the post applied for.

This is a temporary part-time position of 0.5FTE (17.5 hours per week) until 30th September 2025

To apply, please email your cover letter and CV in PDF format to Gareth.Holland-Jones@NorthWalesWildlifeTrust.org.uk no later than midnight on Wednesday the 8th of May 2024. Interviews will be held on Friday the 17th of May.
