You will have at least one year’s project management experience either in local authority or similar, initiatives and skills to develop solutions and work plans based on business demands and objectives. You will also need to be able to interpret and disseminate policy and present in an understandable format to non-specialists. In addition to this you will understand nature recovery and the implications of the Local Nature Recovery Strategy and how this work may influence future local projects.

Key focus areas:

- Project delivery and implementation
