Project Manager - Huddersfield

Summary

***INTERNAL APPLICANTS ONLY***

This role is available to employees of National Trust or Yorkshire Water, as part of our Common Cause Partnership.

Are you an expert project manager with a commitment to create landscape-scale change for nature and for climate?

An opportunity has arisen to join our expert team of project managers in the National Trust and lead our groundbreaking partnership project: Landscapes for Water. Based in the moors and valleys of the South Pennines, this project is restoring several hundred hectares of National Trust and Yorkshire Water land with woodland creation, natural flood management and peat restoration.

Our current project manager will be taking maternity leave from early 2025. We need someone to lead Landscapes for Water from January 2025 during this time.

This is a fixed term contract due to end when the previous employee returns from maternity leave. At this point we cannot confirm exactly how long this contract will last, but it is unlikely to be more than twelve months.



What it's like to work here

As this role covers the North region, your contractual place of work will be the nearest National Trust consultancy office to your home. Our hybrid working policy means you can balance office and home working with site visits and meetings at other 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. 

As part of our north regional Land & Nature consultancy team, you’ll sit alongside regional nature experts and other project managers delivering transformational landscape scale change across the north of England.  

Landscapes for Water is a flagship partnership project, and you will be working with the National Trust project team and partners at Yorkshire Water to secure woodland creation and natural flood management schemes in development and delivery across both Yorkshire Water and National Trust landholdings.



What you'll be doing

Key responsibilities in this role will include: 

  •  Line Management of the Project Support Co-ordinator and Senior MarComms Officer.
  •  Budget, risk and workstream management. Regular reporting to the Landscapes for Water Project Board.
  •  Design and delivery of tree planting projects on Yorkshire Water and National Trust landholdings, including tenant liaison, design, public and regulator consultation, contract tendering, site visits, and site checks.
  •  Contract management of woodland creation, natural flood management and bracken control projects across Yorkshire Water and National Trust landholdings.
  •  Development of new woodland creation projects, for delivery in 2025/26, including building support amongst tenants and partners, designing scheme proposals and completing funding applications.
  •  Timely grant claim and application submission for National Trust and Yorkshire Water projects.
  •   Leading for effective land management following habitat restoration, including grazing and deer management planning and monitoring programmes.
  •   Supporting the Community and Volunteering team with design and delivery of community engagement events.
  •   Champion Landscapes for Water to funders, partners and local communities; lead stakeholder meetings and continue to develop excellent partner relationships with Yorkshire Water, Woodland      Trust, Natural England, White Rose Forest and others. 


Who we're looking for

We’d love to hear from you if you're:
  • able to demonstrate experience of successfully delivering complex end to end project/programme management, including defining resources, leading procurement securing project teams and matrix management across multiple projects/programmes
  • holding a recognised Project Management qualification (APM PMQ /Prince or similar) or Programme Management (MSP or similar) and demonstrate evidence of ongoing CPD in your career to date.  OR you will be able to demonstrate significant project management skills and experience.
  • a flexible thinker and problem-solver, skilled at negotiating and building productive networks, and confident in using your expertise to influence decisions with senior leaders
  • a skilled communicator, with experience of managing complex and challenging situations with competing interests and a diverse range of people
  • a leader for inclusion, who finds ways to create an inclusive culture
  • able to demonstrate experience of managing complex external stakeholder relationships. 
  • able to demonstrate significant knowledge and experience of working in the natural environment at a landscape-scale and will have a sound working knowledge of the key challenges / opportunities associated with nature recovery and climate change mitigation, ideally with place-based experience of upland conservation.


The package

The 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.
