Big Chalk Nature Recovery Fund Manager
National Landscapes Association
The Big Chalk Partnership is made up of more than 150 organisations with a common vision of creating nature-rich chalk and limestone landscapes that benefit all of us.
This relies on an expansion in the scale, pace and impact of nature recovery activities across southern England, benefiting globally important habitats and species and delivering ecosystem services including natural beauty, clean water, healthy soils and our own wellbeing.
The Protected Landscapes Partnership and Defra are supporting our Partnership to catalyse progress towards the UK’s nature commitments across these landscapes. The Nature Recovery Fund Manager will manage a new grants fund for Big Chalk’s Partnership Board.
The Big Chalk programme is hosted by the National Landscapes Association, whose mission is to lead and champion activity, in partnership with our National Landscapes, to protect and restore the UK’s most outstanding landscapes and make sure everyone can enjoy them.
We welcome applicants from a broad range of backgrounds – the most important thing is that you are motivated to work collaboratively and effectively with Big Chalk’s partners to help ensure our grant-making benefits nature to the greatest extent possible.
With experience of grant making and donor reporting in the environmental or social sectors, you’ll be skilled at quickly building positive working relationships with new colleagues, our partners, our funders and other stakeholders.
You’ll also have excellent analytical skills, able to identify, summarise and communicate key issues, and be adept in using spreadsheets to manage budgets and grant processes.
If this sounds like the opportunity for you, then we’d love to hear from you.
