Bumblebees are in crisis. Could you help us in leading the fight to secure their future? We are looking for a Trustee with experience in Science & Conservation to join our Board.

The Trust is a UK wide science-led charity, concerned with halting and reversing the decline in bumblebees. We are governed by a Board of ten Trustees who work well together, and with the executive team with a spirit of openness and trust. We recruit individuals skilled in their field and passionate about nature, species conservation and bumblebees! We’re very proud of our inclusive culture at the Trust and we welcome applications from those who are new to trusteeship as well as those with previous experience. We want to hear how your lived experience will give us a better representation of the diverse audiences we seek to inspire to take action for bumblebees.

The closing date for submitting your application is 10am on Tuesday July 1st. If you have a background in any of the following areas: bumblebee research, entomology, ecology, practical application of evidence for conservation, policy advocacy, data management and/or conservation-related education and training for citizen science projects, and an average of a day a month to take on this rewarding role please download the recruitment pack from our website for more information and details of how to apply.

It is anticipated that short-listed candidates will be interviewed via Zoom on either 4th or 6th August.
