9Trees is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company, set up by a group of people determined to make a positive impact on the environment. We help people plant nine trees a year to balance their carbon footprint. We bring together landowners and contractors to plant trees. We manage the sites for 50years to ensure their longevity through pre- and post-management. With over 40 combined years of experience in nature conservation, promoting native wildlife and sustainable woodland sites across the UK is at the core of our mission. For biodiversity, for wellbeing and for rural jobs.

We are looking for a person to join our team for 3-6 months. as a grass roots organisation we would love for the first month to be on a pro-bono (Voluntary) basis, so you can learn about us and we can learn how to work together. This will support us as we enter our fourth full year as a company. As ‘Development Manager’, you would need to be able to dedicate about five hours across a week to support with promotion, administration and communications.

We are looking for a self-starter who is motivated and able to work independently. Ideally you will have experience in conservation or woodland management, however a passion for fighting climate change is the most important thing! We are happy to think creatively about shaping this role to suit your unique combination of skills, experiences and network.

Our team is based in Bristol and Mid Wales. We would love to get to know you in person, however the majority of this role can be done remotely if you are based elsewhere.

Check out our website www.9trees.org and social media to learn more about us and our mission. To apply, please send a covering letter and CV to info@9trees.org

We hope you can get started straight away!
