Do you want the opportunity to make a real impact for beach nesting birds across the West
Cumbrian coast? We are now recruiting for a Beach Nesting Bird Project Officer to help us
change the fortunes of beach nesting birds on multiple sites along the West Cumbrian coast.
Ringed plover, oystercatcher, and little tern regularly attempt nesting on shingle beaches,
looking for new sites each year to raise the next generation, as well as returning to old
favourite haunts. All these species are facing the growing challenge of the increased pressure
and demands being made on our coastline. That’s where we’re aiming to make the difference.
What’s the role about?
We are looking for a person to lead on our work across a network of beach nesting bird sites.
You’ll be surveying nesting sites, monitoring their progress, creating and supporting volunteer
groups to safeguard colonies, running events to spread awareness, as well as helping with other
small projects as needed. You will need to be an inspiring communicator with the ability to
motivate others to act.
You’ll be both creative and innovative when it comes to delivering this programme to restore
and protect beach nesting birds.
Developing, empowering, and supporting teams of volunteers to deliver beach nesting bird
protection will form an important part of the role, and experience of leading a diverse team is
desirable. You will need to have the ability to relate well to others. You will work to
encourage participation and to communicate the value of community and volunteer involvement to
the conservation of shore birds will be central to the success of the project.
