Scotland Conservation Officer

The British Dragonfly Society is the voice for dragonflies in Britain and we work to conserve
them and their wetland habitats. Our key aims are to improve understanding and awareness of
dragonflies, their conservation and the challenges they face, in order to increase action for
dragonflies across Britain. We are science led with research and recording underpinning our
conservation and engagement work. Our small staff team is supported by a dedicated network of
volunteers allowing us to have a big reach and impact.

As Scotland Conservation Officer you will work with volunteers and partner organisations across
Scotland to conserve some of the UK’s rarest dragonfly species. You will manage projects,
working with conservation partners and volunteers to improve and survey habitats. Your work
will also involve training partner organisation staff, volunteers and the public in
conservation and recording, communicating our messages and engaging with the public, and
reporting to partners, Trustees and funders.

If you are passionate about the conservation of wildlife in Scotland and looking for a varied
and interesting role in a small and supportive team we would love to hear from you. We offer
flexible remote working, competitive salaries and a matched pension scheme up to 6% of salary.
