Nature Friendly Farming Adviser

4 months ago

Bury St Edmunds, United Kingdom National Trust Full time

Our ambitions in the NT for Nature Recovery, Climate Adaptation, Carbon Capture and Sustainable Land Management are huge. We want landscapes with more nature, that are accessible to more people, and that help to address the climate crisis. If you're experienced in delivering land use change and environmental farm advice, we'd love you to help us achieve this vision.

What it's like to work here:You’ll be part of Midlands and East of England NT Land and Nature team in our internal consultancy: a multidisciplinary team of experts, from curators and nature conservation advisors to project managers and archaeologists, who provide specialist consultancy advice to the places we care for, to help make things happen.

Your contractual location will be the nearest National Trust office to your home location, but our hybrid working policy means you can balance office and home working with site visits and meetings at National Trust places. We’ll talk about this in more detail at interview, but you should expect to be at a National Trust site for 40-60% of your working week.

What you'll be doing:You'll provide support, direction and technical advice to property and estate teams on all aspects of the management of our agricultural land. This includes land farmed and managed ‘in hand’, as well as supporting our tenants and others responsible for managing National Trust land.

You’ll be providing advice on sustainable nature friendly farming, delivering innovative approaches to re-purposing our land to deliver more for nature, carbon, and access. Working closely with our farming tenants, you’ll build relationships and trust, to offer support and advice to enable them to develop and maintain profitable, sustainable farm businesses, whilst also helping to deliver the NT strategy across their holdings.

Helping and supporting the development of new Agri-environment schemes, you’ll see opportunities for high nature status farming and for the creation of bigger and better habitats and carbon capture. You’ll share and champion your expertise in Agri-ecological farming helping others to transition to new innovative farming practices that move forward our ambitious strategy at pace.

Who we're looking forWe'd love to hear from you if you're
- experienced with explaining current farming issues and opportunities to a farming audience, and substantial practical knowledge of farming and other land management systems.
- able to bring understanding and implementation of farm compliance, legislation, and risk management.
- a skilled communicator, who can build strong relationships within diverse teams, both internally and externally.
- a flexible thinker and problem-solver, skilled at negotiating and building productive networks, and confident in using your expertise to influence decisions.
- proactive and organised, with experience of managing projects and a talent for multi-tasking and getting things done, strongly focused on detail, quality, cost, and time.
- lead for inclusion and always think ‘everyone welcome’.

The packageThe National Trust has the motto ‘For everyone, for ever’ at its heart. We’re working hard to create an inclusive culture, where everyone feels they belong. 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.
- Substantial pension scheme of up to 10% basic salary
- Free entry to National Trust places for you, a guest and your children (under 18)
- Tax-free childcare scheme
- Rental deposit loan scheme
- Season ticket loan
- Perks at work discounts such as gym memberships, shopping discount codes, cinema discounts
- Flexible working whenever possible
- Employee assistance programme
- Free parking at most Trust places
- Independent financial advice
