National Wildflower Centre Operative

4 months ago

Par, United Kingdom Eden Project Full time

Zero-hour, fixed term contracts

£10.90 per hour

We are looking for Wildflower Operatives to support in seed harvesting and processing and in the delivery of various wildflower projects.

Job Family Definition
The National Wildflower Centre (NWC) has been part of the Eden Project since 2017. The NWC sits within the Communities & Development Team, which explores new and exciting opportunities to connect people with nature, and increase biodiversity across the UK.
The NWC uses wildflowers to bring biodiversity, delight and colour into the lives of communities across the UK. From hedges, fields, and woodlands to roundabouts, housing estates, churchyards and cemeteries, we want everyone to experience the glory of wildflowers. Our projects combine conservation, creativity and colour to make new wildflower habitats that support wildlife and connect people to the natural world.
Wildflowers were once a significant part of the British landscape until WWII when huge amounts of meadow were ploughed for arable farming. Today, they account for less than 1% of the British countryside. Wildflowers:
❖ connect people with the natural world
❖ transform underused spaces into vibrant living landscapes
❖ help pollinators that are currently under threat
❖ contribute to pride of place
❖ show your community is actively doing its bit to increase biodiversity
❖ provide opportunities to learn about nature and biodiversity.
