What’s the role about?
This is an exciting opportunity to join the UK Overseas Territories team as a project officer
on a one year contract and work on some of the RSPB’s most impactful conservation projects. You
would, in particular, support work on Darwin Plus projects focussed on two of the world’s most
remote inhabited islands: Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic, and the Pitcairn Islands in
the South Pacific. Projects range in duration, activity and objective, and include Atlantic
Guardians that aims to support the community of Tristan da Cunha with their new MPZ, while
other projects are focused on the management of a range of invasive species.
Reporting to and working with the Project Manager, this post holder would help support delivery
across these projects, ensuring activities are completed on time, to budget and with
appropriate reporting. The ability to work effectively and in full collaboration with our
on-island partners is crucial, so we are looking for someone with excellent communication and
listening skills who is a natural team player, as maintaining positive relations is crucial to
our long-term conservation success. We are also looking for someone who is highly organised,
with excellent time management skills and the ability to turn their hand to a wide range of
activities under time pressure. This could entail everything from workshop planning to marine
equipment purchasing, blog-writing to steering group co-ordination, report preparation to
budget management. The projects are highly varied, and the officer will need to maintain
momentum and delivery across them. Finally, an aptitude for writing reports and communication
materials is a particular plus.
