The 10 ‘core’ partners are Amphibian & Reptile Conservation; Bat Conservation Trust; Buglife; Bumblebee Conservation Trust; Butterfly Conservation; Plantlife; Marine Conservation Society; Natural Resources Wales; RSPB Cymru; Vincent Wildlife Trust. Many other organisations, communities and landowners are working with the project to enable plans for conservation and engagement activity across Wales. We are seeking a project officer to deliver the last two years of the Swansea Bay’s Stars of the Night project, a component of Natur Am Byth! The project is based in the Swansea Bay area, delivering bat survey, monitoring work and lighting guidance with a particular focus on lesser horseshoe bats. You will coordinate and work closely with volunteer surveyors, lead training and deliver engagement events for local communities. You will use survey data to guide and advice local authorities to reduce the impact of lighting, and improve connectivity for lesser horseshoe bats in the Swansea Bay region. The post will work closely with partners delivering the Swansea Bay: Coast, Commons and Communities project, delivering action for a range of species across the Swansea Bay area. Why work for us?
