Would you like to contribute to large-scale ecological restoration and nature recovery across the UK? Do you have experience and interest in ecological restoration, scientific research and working with volunteers?
Large-scale ecological restoration can help address the interlinked challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss. We are seeking a Research Assistant to investigate and support new and ongoing landscape-scale ecological restoration projects across Yorkshire. The position will support data collection, analysis and communication to inform landscape-scale ecological restoration and nature recovery across the UK uplands.
You will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team of scientists and land managers and in partnership with a range of organisations. You will help design, organise and deliver a range of monitoring activities to explore the wide-ranging impacts of changing land management on ecosystem services, biodiversity, economy and local and visitor perceptions. You will help analyse data, contribute to report writing and communicate results with a range of audiences. You will help deliver a volunteer programme, providing outstanding opportunities for people to contribute to monitoring nature recovery. The role will require field work at various locations in and round Ribblehead, North Yorkshire and will involve a mix of home working and field work.
