We're looking for a Development Specialist to join us on a fixed-term basis to design, deliver, evaluate, and manage the development interventions required to deliver our Climate Action commitments.
We know the challenges of the climate crisis represent some of the biggest and most urgent threats to the special places we love.
However, we also know we're in a unique position, where we're able to stand up and play our part in responding to the impacts of our changing climate.
Responding to climate change is one of our top priorities and key strategic ambitions: 'addressing the challenges presented by climate change will ensure that we remain at the forefront of what matters to people and that we are best able to care for our places'.
What it's like to work here We want everyone to feel confident, capable and committed in actively playing their part to make a difference for our climate.
There is a huge demand for training in this area and you'll be working with members of the climate action programme to help understand and meet the learning needs of our diverse teams.
Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon and there will be an expectation for you to attend the office.
However, there is flexibility on where you're based at other times.
You'll be required to work at a National Trust location for 40-60% of your working week.
This will be discussed in more detail at interview.
