Environmental Business Manager (Green Finance)

Northumberland Wildlife Trust is developing new funding mechanisms to support nature’s recovery
using emerging green finance approaches such as biodiversity net gain (BNG), peatland code and
the voluntary carbon market.

We now need dedicated expertise to bring this work into a coherent strategy, to develop
commercial models and plans that build revenues to fund our work allowing much greater
investment.

This post is designed to provide the expertise and capacity to work alongside our existing
Nature Reserve, Estates and Ecologist staff that have begun to develop these programmes. The
Trust is preparing to engage in BNG delivery. We will act as a habitat provider and seller of
off-site biodiversity units.

The role of the Environmental Business Manager (Green Finance) is a programme management
position where the main purpose is to manage access to green finance to develop and deliver
nature-based solutions that will address habitat loss and climate crisis.

The role is for 35 hours per week on 18 month contract. NWT operates a flexitime system.

The deadline for applications is noon, 19 February 2024.
