Norfolk Wildlife Trust is the oldest Wildlife Trust in the country and Norfolk's largest environmental charity, committed to the protection and enhancement of Norfolk's wildlife and wild places.
A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join our Broads North Reserves team based at the incredible NWT Hickling Broad National Nature Reserve, a 600ha site of open Broad, reed bed and fen, wet woodland and open grazing marsh. The role will be predominantly working at Hickling but also other important NWT sites within the Broads including Martham Broad NNR and Pigneys Wood. We are seeking an enthusiastic and practical person who will carry out a variety of tasks, including habitat management and infrastructure maintenance using machinery such as a Truxor, tractors and boats. This is an exciting time to join the team as we work on a vision for the future of Hickling, with adaptation to habitats and visitor opportunities as well as work for the benefit of existing species such as the iconic Swallowtail butterfly and rare birds that call Hickling home like crane, bittern and newly arrived spoonbills which now breed on the nature reserve.
The successful candidate will have a good knowledge of wildlife conservation and habitat management techniques as well as effective communication skills, both with colleagues and members of the public. The post will work within a close-knit highly motivated team and an ability to work well with colleagues is vital. The successful candidate will also have at least 2 years experience working on a nature reserve or similar. You will assist in undertaking a variety of different conservation management tasks to protect wildlife and enhance habitats including fen mowing, reed cutting, scrub management, water level management, wildlife monitoring, stock handling and maintenance of infrastructure.
