beach nesting birds in Norfolk?
We are looking for a dynamic and motivated individual with ecological experience and a
community centred approach, to fill a six-month seasonal post as Field Officer, assisting our

cultivate positive change for all the special wildlife inhabiting this important coastal
habitat. Our vision is to create a place where wildlife and people thrive.
As the Seasonal Field Officer, you will support all aspects of on-the-ground delivery
throughout the busy breeding season (March-August) in line with project objectives. You will be
