This is a fantastic opportunity to shape the delivery of an innovative, strategic programme, supporting the North of England’s towns and cities to transform their green spaces so that they deliver more for people and nature.

You will be the regional lead working closely with partners and stakeholders to ensure the North is best placed to make the most of the opportunities the programme provides, as well as working internally to build enthusiasm and manage communications.

The role is based in the regional internal consultancy but much of your time will involve working externally with partners and stakeholders across the North. You will support national and regional strategic leads for urban green space, working alongside colleagues in operations and the consultancy to share learning, access expertise, and understand the needs of places across the region.

As this role covers the North region, your contractual place of work will be the nearest National Trust consultancy office to your home.
