Voluntary Reserves Team Assistant, Accommodation Provided

Devon Wildlife Trust

Exeter, EX2 4AB


Job Description

DWT’s nature reserves are pivotal to our mission. They are havens for wildlife, protecting some of our most precious habitats and rarest species. They provide a reservoir of wildlife that can spread into the surrounding landscape. Landowners can learn from best practice trialled on reserves to restore other damaged habitats. And Nature Reserves are for people too – they are a place where visitors can experience nature and hopefully, as a result, work towards our vision too.

In this role, you will live in our volunteers' flat with two other volunteers and be part of the nature reserves team, helping DWT to manage more reserves to a high standard. With support and working as part of a small team, you will have the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of reserves’ management that fit your skills and competencies. Your skills, knowledge and confidence will grow through training and guidance from experienced staff.

If you are hoping for a career in nature conservation, this role would provide excellent training and experience.


Attendance

You will usually be out and about 5 days a week, with opportunities for occasional evening and weekend volunteering. This can be flexible e.g., if you need to allow time for a part-time job.
