We are looking for an experienced project assistant to support the delivery of Leeside, an arts-science collaboration project that aims to assess people’s values about protected sites. Leeside is an eight-month creative collaboration between Natural England and the University of Exeter and supported by the Arts and Culture Exeter and Natural England’s Protected Site Strategies (PSS) research and development project

Two arts commissions will be awarded, one in Devon and one in Cornwall, around protected sites (e.g. Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), Special Areas of Conservation (SAC), etc) facing external pressures such as nutrient pollution, overgrazing, recreational disturbance, neglect or poor management. The sites have been selected for their rich ecological, cultural and heritage significance, and research potential for replicating and scaling to become case studies. Impact and legacy are key priorities for the commissions, with the intended outcome of encouraging community empowerment for future engagement in the management of protected sites, and informing relevant policy around protected site strategies.

The purpose of the role is to deliver a professional, people-focused, efficient and effective administrative, financial and communications support service to the Leeside project. The post-holder must be able to plan and prioritise a busy and varied workload, will be expected to contribute to a range of key project deliverables and will be confident and effective in dealing with people from a broad range of communities and stakeholder groups. The post-holder will work closely with the Project Manager, Leeside Project, who will lead and manage the programme. The post-holder will be part of the Arts and Culture team, based in the Faculty for Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences.

The role can be based at either the Streatham or Penryn campuses, with hybrid working available.

The role may involve travel to areas around Dartmoor and the Camel Estuary, not accessible via public transport.
