Job Advert

Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK's fastest growing nature conservation organisations and seeks to appoint an Events Officer to help us plan, co-ordinate and deliver our year-round programme of innovative public events, community experiences and digital engagement opportunities.

You will plan, promote and deliver a high-quality commercial events programme (ranging from regular guided walks to major events and large-scale festivals) that raises awareness of Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, drives footfall to some of our key nature reserves and generates vital income to support our work for wildlife. You'll monitor and evaluate engagement activities to ensure we consistently deliver impactful, financially sustainable experiences; nurture a team of volunteers to enhance visitor engagement; collaborate with operational teams to craft exciting wildlife-watching opportunities; and build relationships with new and existing partners and suppliers to diversify and strengthen our offer.

We're looking for a creative individual who is passionate about wildlife, community engagement and delivering high-quality visitor experiences. You'll need to have experience of designing and delivering outdoor public events, strong volunteer management skills, and the ability to build great relationships with new and existing partners and suppliers. You will also need a solid understanding of health and safety and data protection, the digital skills necessary to create compelling social media content and manage online booking systems, and the ability to present technical information in engaging ways to bring our conservation work to life for our different audiences. Highly organised and very flexible, you'll be confident working independently and as part of multidisciplinary teams. A full UK driving licence, a willingness to travel, and an Enhanced DBS check are essential.
