We are looking for someone who wants a new and exciting opportunity to move
forward Butterfly Conservation’s priority species and landscapes identified
in our 2021-2026 Strategy.
You will be responsible for collecting data about priority butterfly and
moth species and their habitats in key landscapes right across Northern
Ireland. You will use this data to measure the impact of our conservation
action as well as informing the development and delivery of new conservation
programmes.
You will be a recent graduate and have some voluntary or paid experience
in practical surveying or conservation which has provided you with a good
understanding of ecology and conservation. We are looking to invest in your
development through a combination of on the job mentoring and training from
external providers (including QGIS, ecological survey techniques and habitat
condition assessment).
You will report into our Northern Ireland Senior Conservation Officer and
work closely with internal and external stakeholders across the UK. You’ll
be expected to manage and influence a range of stakeholders whilst building
data and evidence to enable Butterfly Conservation to delivery its strategic
goals.
If you are excited about the prospect of working for a leading wildlife
charity and the opportunity for significant career development, please read
through the job description and person specification to see if you have
the right skills to join the team. If you are interested in the role and
would like an informal chat please contact either Rose Cremin, Senior Conservation

Conservation for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland (Drees@butterfly-conservation.org).
