We’re looking for a Project/Programme Officer to support the North East Urban team with the development and delivery of the North East Urban Programme. This is an exciting programme building our approach to working in urban areas across the North East to address unequal access and deliver benefits for nature, heritage, and people.

It’s important that our people reflect and represent the diversity of the communities and audiences we serve. We welcome and value difference, so when we say we’re for everyone, we want everyone to be welcome in our teams too.
