Bradford, Bradford, United Kingdom The Aire Rivers Trust Full time

Salary: £40k per annum (dependent on experience) plus a 3% pension contribution.
Location: Office-first hybrid work model. Based in our Bradford office but with the flexibility to work a couple of days a week to work remotely.
Full-time: (although applicants wishing for 0.8FTE would be considered).
Twenty-five days annual leave plus statutory allowance.

Scope and remit

We are seeking a Programme and Projects Manager to join our fantastic team. At the Aire Rivers Trust, we're the only environmental charity dedicated to looking after the Aire and its tributaries. We work to improve our rivers through habitat enhancement, reducing pollution, and improving access and education. We aim to punch above our weight with exciting new projects across the catchment, from the stunning Malham Cove to the hidden Bradford Beck.

Our most important asset is our people: we want to recruit the best. You will join a friendly and committed team of experts passionate about improving the River Aire and the streams that feed it.

About the role

Working with the Trust Manager, you will help create a sensible balance between the achievable and the ideal. You will be the first port of call for the Trust's talented and dedicated staff, supporting them to deliver a range of projects within budget and on time.

You will be responsible for planning, progressing, and auditing the trust's work programme, coordinating others' skills, and balancing the Trust's varied workload.

What you bring to the Trust

We seek an organized, thorough, calm individual who can keep abreast of all work streams and keep tasks and budgets on track. Your strong financial and leadership skills will support our environmental experts in improving the environmental quality, flood risk, and quality of life along our river.

We're looking for:

  • Demonstrable track record of managing a concurrent mix of projects to achieve overlapping and discrete aims.
  • Strong financial management skills and the ability to manage multiple budgets to achieve maximum value.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with integrity, tact and diplomacy.
  • Experience with a collaborative approach to working and leading colleagues.
  • Strong track record of problem-solving between conflicting priorities.

Experience working for a small charity is desirable. As is some interest and experience in the environmental sector.

A detailed job specification and application pack is available on our webpage

Travel across the Aire Catchment in Bradford, Craven and Leeds for events, meetings, and remote site visits may be required to support project delivery in this role, so a driver's license and access to your own vehicle are essential. The role may require working outdoors, often in locations with difficult access and sometimes in poor weather conditions.

More information on the Aire Rivers Trust team and work is available on our website.
