Derbyshire Wildlife Trust
We’re a small charity, with big ideas! We believe that everyone has their part to play in
Nature’s recovery. We are the only organisation in Derbyshire working to protect and enhance
wildlife and wild places throughout the county but through our work with businesses, other
conservation charities, and the public we are mobilising others across the county and the rest
of the UK to act for wildlife. As are a registered Charity, we are supported by 16,000 members
and are part of a movement of 46 Trusts with a collective membership of over 800,000.
Our purpose is to achieve our vision of a Wilder Derbyshire by creating Nature Recovery
Networks and reintroducing lost species. We aim to deliver our vision by leading Nature’s
Recovery, inspiring people, and communities to care and mobilising people to act. All our work
is underpinned by our values.
Our Charity is growing, we currently employ 80 people and, crucially, we are supported by over
500 volunteers. We have three delivery teams; Wilder Landscapes, Wilder Communities and Income
Generation, supported by the Finance and Resources team. Each team has a Department Lead who
reports to the Chief Executive who is responsible for the operations of the Trust and who, in
turn, reports to the Board of Trustees which governs the organisation.
We’re committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and believe that everyone should have
access to nature. We expect people to work harmoniously with each other and with volunteers,
and to provide help and guidance to others when needed. As a small charity, our employees need
to be willing to be flexible about working arrangements and willing to provide occasional cover
for absent staff. We want people to develop professionally and personally while working with us
and employees are encouraged to participate in the range of opportunities available to enable
this.

inclusive environment in which everyone is valued. We welcome applications from eligible
