We’re looking for a passionate and driven Project Officer to join the South West Peatland Partnership (SWPP)—a collaborative programme delivering large-scale peatland restoration across Cornwall, Dartmoor and Exmoor.

Hosted by South West Water, this role puts you at the heart of environmental recovery, working alongside National Park Authorities, Natural England, the Environment Agency, and leading conservation organisations.

This is a unique opportunity to play a hands-on role in tackling climate change, improving biodiversity, and restoring some of the UK’s most important habitats.

Developing restoration plans using field survey data and GIS tools (QGIS/QField)
Managing budgets (up to £1m annually) and overseeing contractor payments
Leading stakeholder engagement, including landowners, farmers, and public bodies
Ensuring high-quality delivery, compliance, and health & safety standards
Supporting monitoring, research projects, and training activities
Collaborating across a wide partnership of environmental organisations

What we are looking for:

We’re seeking someone with a strong blend of technical expertise, project management capability and stakeholder engagement skills.

Essential:

Experience delivering nature conservation or land management projects
Strong contract and contractor management experience
Proven ability to manage budgets and project delivery
Competence in GIS for site assessment and survey
Experience engaging and negotiating with land managers and stakeholders
Understanding of peatland, wetland or upland ecology
Knowledge of health & safety and construction compliance

Desirable:

Degree in a Natural Science (or equivalent experience)
Experience applying CDM regulations
Field survey and ecological monitoring skills
SMSTS / SSSTS certification

What's in it for you:

We know our people drive our success — so we’re committed to offering an excellent range of benefits, including:

Generous holiday allowance + bank holidays
Discretionary bonus
Competitive contributory pension
Share-save scheme
Health benefits & wellbeing support programmes
Group discounts
Cycle to Work scheme
Financial support services
Development and training opportunities
… and much more!

Closing Date: 10th June 2026

We may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Be yourself, we like it that way. Together, we will build a culture of belonging, where inclusion is instinctive. Diversity is our strength and a reflection of our communities. We care, we value everyone, we celebrate uniqueness.

Our core values, which are essential to our success, are:

Be Rock Solid - Build trust and be trusted. Be the one we all look to and can depend on.
