Location:                    Peterborough 

Position Type:           Paid/Permanent

Help save the 'small things that run the world'.  Buglife - The Invertebrate Conservation Trust is a rapidly growing charity that aims to stop invertebrate extinctions and to raise awareness of these incredible animals.  

 

The Conservation Project Manager is a key post, responsible for developing and managing broad scale conservation and awareness raising projects across a range of habitats from heathland to brown-roofs, and from Peterborough to the Antarctic.  This is a great opportunity to make a difference for highly threatened wildlife.

 

Departing post-holder Jamie Roberts says "I have enjoyed this role immensely, particularly the challenge of taking large conservation projects from concept to delivery".

 

You must have a high level of ability, and proven track record, in staff management, prioritisation, project administration and creativity.  Such knowledge would normally be acquired only after at least three years management experience.  Good conservation sector and ecological knowledge in the areas of policy, legislation, and land management is necessary, as is being able to communicate clearly and persuasively, and build partnerships.  Experience of budgetary management, Health and Safety procedures, fundraising and research, survey and monitoring would be an advantage.  A commitment to protecting the environment and a desire to make a positive difference are essential.  The post holder must be able to work on his/her own initiative.  

 

Please write to Matt Shardlow, Buglife, First Floor, 90 Bridge Street, Peterborough, PE1 1DY or info en buglife.org.uk, enclosing a CV and a letter that explains why you are the person who will take forward our conservation projects work.  Deadline - 15 June 09.  

 

Interviews will be held in Peterborough on 26 June 09. For a full job description and more information about Buglife see www.buglife.org.uk

***IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE READ****

The Department of Entomology is moving the entire Lepidoptera collection from Wandsworth to the new Darwin Centre building in South Kensington. 

>From the 1st May 2009 the Lepidoptera collection will be closed to visitors, and requests for loans and imaging will be deferred until after the move.  Please be aware that there will be a considerable backlog of requests to deal with by then. 

There will also be delays in responding to e-mail, telephone, postal and other enquiries during the period of the move, for which we apologise. The move is expected to be completed by the end of November so normal business should resume in December 2009.
