The role will support a phased approach to understanding the feasibility of a community-led conservation network within the UK: leading on stakeholder mapping and analysis, creating and sharing learning materials and inputting to comms content, relationship building with existing and new contacts, organising meetings, events and workshops, supporting peer-to-peer knowledge sharing, and ensuring that relevant learning is captured and integrated into the work. You will have the opportunity to attend relevant events and forums, and will be required to travel to attend in-person meetings, within the UK. Additionally, you will play a valuable role in a small, collaborative team, working together with colleagues to ensure administrative and programme level processes are shared across the team.

You will have proven research and data collection skills, including interviews or other qualitative methods, and experience in undertaking desk-based research and analysis. You will bring excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to deliver presentations and develop comms materials, along with a proven ability to develop and maintain effective working relationships with a diverse range of people and organisations, including community or local groups.

You will have some understanding of the UK conservation sector, and/or relevant conservation issues and opportunities, and an interest in, and commitment to, community-led conservation. You will be an excellent team player, able to seek out and harness the views and contributions of others, and to work sensitively and constructively with communities and individuals.

In return, the role offers the opportunity to work within a ground-breaking and entrepreneurial organisation, at the forefront of global conservation, and alongside a vibrant and dynamic community network. In addition, Fauna & Flora offers a generous pension contribution, attractive annual leave allowance and life insurance
