An exciting full-time opportunity has arisen to join the Climate Change Response Team as a Community Engagement Officer (A Welsh Government funded biodiversity and habitat renewal project). The project aims to strengthen Bridgend’s protected sites network, with a strong emphasis on engaging landowners, local communities, conservation partners, and volunteers. The project will address key habitat management issues, involving a broad range of stakeholders to ensure long-term sustainability.
The Community Engagement Officer will work closely with project partners including Natural Resources Wales, the Wildlife Trust, Bug Life, and others, to co-ordinate and deliver education activities, engage with volunteers and communities, and ensure successful implementation of the project.
Along with a strong focus on community engagement a nature or biodiversity background would be a great advantage but not essential.
