This is a great opportunity to get involved in a range of practical conservation and estate management tasks on some wonderful nature reserves across South and East Dorset, including Lorton Meadows, Winfrith and Tadnoll, and Upton Heath.

This post will be rewarding and enjoyable, fitting within a highly skilled and vibrant team.

The post is a full time position (fixed term to March 2025, possibility of extension) and will be based out of the Urban Wildlife Centre, Beacon Hill, Corfe Mullen and also occasionally working out of Dorset Wildlife Trust HQ at Brooklands Farm, Forston near Dorchester.
