- We are looking for someone, keen to use their skills in habitat survey and mapping, to lead on reviewing the status and location of priority habitats across Cambridgeshire.**Contact details**:
The Cambridgeshire Habitat Survey is an essential reference tool that identifies high value habitats across the county. However, it was undertaken in the 1990s and significant parts of it are now out of date.

The habitat survey update will be achieved through a mixture of desk-based GIS analysis of aerial photos and comparing more recent information sources with the original 1990s habitat survey (undertaken mainly by CPERC), and field surveys to verify changes in priority habitats. This role will involve organising and carrying out these field surveys and co-ordinating with other Wildlife Trust staff and volunteers to support the overall survey effort.

The role will also involve liaising with a variety of stakeholders, including landowners and managers, local authorities, and conservation organisations.

If you have experience of undertaking phase 1 and / or UK Habitats Classification surveys and skills in geographical information software (GIS) and would like to put these skills to use helping to conserve and protect priority habitats in Cambridgeshire, this could be the role for you.
