Brandon, Canada The Royal Parks Full time

The Organisation

The Royal Parks (TRP) is a charity created in March 2017. We manage over 5,000 acres of diverse parkland, rare habitats and historic buildings and monuments in eight Royal Parks across London. These are Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, The Green Park, St James’s Park, The Regent's Park and Primrose Hill, Greenwich Park, Richmond Park and Bushy Park.

We also manage other important public spaces including Brompton Cemetery and Victoria Tower Gardens. Our eight Royal Parks and other iconic green spaces are among the most visited attractions in the UK with 77 million visits every year.

Our Help Nature Thrive project is all about biodiversity and involves creating and enhancing habitats across the Royal Parks, commissioning expert research and providing visitors with plenty of opportunities to connect with wildlife and nature.

We are now looking for a Project Officer to join us on a full-time basis for a fixed-term contract until 30th September 2025.

The Benefits

  • Salary of £32,666 to £39,187 per annum, depending on experience
  • 26 days' annual leave plus public holidays
  • Pension scheme (3% employee contribution; up to 10% employer contribution)
  • Private medical insurance and healthcare cash plan
  • Employee assistance programme and access to mental health first aiders
  • Learning and development opportunities
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Offices in a beautiful location

This is a terrific opportunity for a conservation project professional with experience of managing consultants and contractors to develop their career with our historic organisation.

You will work in some of London’s most iconic open spaces, engaging with important wildlife sites and encountering a range of habitats, from wetlands to woodlands to nationally designated acid grasslands

What’s more, you’ll have the chance to reap the rewards of competitive benefits, and the chance to flourish in a beautifully green, historic setting.

The Role

As a Project Officer, you will help us deliver an ambitious programme of biodiversity enhancement projects in the heart of London as part of our Help Nature Thrive initiative, funded by the players of Peoples’ Postcode Lottery.

Working closely with colleagues, external partners, volunteers and contractors, you will boost biodiversity and increase our parks’ resilience to climate change.

You will be involved at all stages of project delivery, from scoping potential projects to developing proposals, undertaking practical work, and directing and supervising others.

Moreover, you will engage the public, sharing our objectives, project progress and outcomes to ensure we have public buy-in for this important work.

Additionally, you will:

  • Support the delivery of our Biodiversity Framework and action plan
  • Respond to general conservation enquiries and provide specialist nature conservation advice
  • Plan, schedule and co-ordinate the Help Nature Thrive Conservation and Enhancement Programme
  • Help manage the project budget
  • Collect, collate and share data with colleagues
  • Ensure data on projects and volunteers is recorded

About You

To be considered as a Project Officer, you will need:

  • Experience of scoping, designing and delivering conservation management and enhancement projects in a range of habitats
  • Experience of managing consultants and contractors in the delivery of conservation projects
  • Excellent advocacy, communication, interpersonal and negotiation skills
  • Excellent team working and organisation skills

Other organisations may call this role Project Development Officer, Conservation Project Officer, Conservation Officer, Conservation Management Officer, Habitat Project Officer, or Biodiversity Project Officer.
