Bumblebees are in crisis — and we need expert voices to help secure their future. The Bumblebee Conservation Trust is looking for a Conservation & Science Trustee to join our Board and help guide the science-led action needed to halt and reverse bumblebee decline. If you have knowledge and experience of UK landscape-scale, evidence-based conservation and/or UK environmental policy advocacy, your expertise could make a lasting difference for bumblebees, pollinators, people and nature.

As a science-led conservation charity, the Trust works to protect bumblebees by turning evidence into practical action. This is a rewarding opportunity to bring strategic insight, challenge and support to a mission that matters. We are proud of our inclusive culture and warmly welcome applications from people who are new to trusteeship, as well as those with previous Board experience.

If you can bring expertise in any of the following: entomology, ecology, the practical application of evidence for conservation, policy advocacy, data management and/or conservation-related education and training for citizen science projects — and can commit around one day a month — we would love to hear from you.

Use your finance expertise to help secure a future for bumblebees. The Bumblebee Conservation Trust is looking for a Trustee & Finance Committee Chair to join our Board and support the strong financial stewardship of a science-led conservation charity.

You will chair our Finance Committee and provide strategic oversight of financial planning, reporting, controls, reserves and risk, working with fellow Trustees, our Chief Executive and senior team to help the Trust remain resilient, well governed and able to deliver lasting impact for bumblebees, pollinators, people and nature.

We are seeking a qualified accountant with strong financial management experience, sound judgement and the ability to explain financial information clearly. Charity finance experience would be welcome but is not essential. We warmly encourage applications from people who are new to trusteeship as well as those with previous Board or committee experience.

Based anywhere in the UK. Time commitment is around one day a month.
