Project Manager – Volunteering Full Time NEW

Join us. We’re foresters, professionals and experts. We are a passionate team who love to share our enthusiasm and want to make a positive difference for you and the environment.
Together, we’re using our scale and expertise to grow the nation’s forests for everyone. We’re already adapting our landscapes for tomorrow, and getting stuff done today, like creating amazing places and experiences for you to enjoy. We’re providing vital homes for wildlife, making our air cleaner to breathe and producing sustainable timber.
What you’ll do…
Forestry England cares for the nation’s forests for people, nature and the economy. Our volunteers and partners play a vital role in connecting communities with nature and supporting the sustainable management and enhancement of England’s forests.
Working closely with the Nature Recovery Programme team, district delivery teams, biodiversity specialists and volunteer colleagues, this role will design, support and monitor volunteer opportunities that directly contribute to biodiversity, ecological recovery and forest resilience.
While Forestry England has not always been known for our conservation work, we have bold ambitions to be a leading force for nature recovery. Our progress is real and measurable: FSC certified since 1999, WWF’s ‘Gift to the Earth’ award in 2001, and commitments to restore all our ancient woodlands in 2007 and 11,000 hectares of open habitats in 2013. In 2022 we launched our first Biodiversity Plan with a clear goal to make the nation’s forests the most valuable places for wildlife to thrive and expand in England.
Please see the job description for more information and details about what we need from you.
Where you’ll work…
This role can be based at any Forestry England office located centrally in England – blended working is a possibility.
