Application deadline: Friday 17 July 2026– 23:59 BST
Location: Cambridge, UK (hybrid working with at least Wednesday each week in the Cambridge office)

Part-time :17.5 hours per week over 2.5 days
Contract: 1-year fixed-term initially, with potential for extension

Salary: £31,000 - £32,000 per annum, pro-rata depending on skills/experience, plus competitive 12% pension benefit
Annual Leave: 25 days pro rata in year 1, increasing by 1 day p/a to 28 days

We’re BirdLife International, the only global Partnership conserving birds and all life on our planet. We exist to give one voice to nature, and to unite and strengthen conservation across borders.

We are looking for a Red List Assessor on a part-time basis to join our Science Division, to contribute to BirdLife’s vital work on evaluating and documenting the extinction risk of the world’s birds.

How you will do this:

By working closely with other members of BirdLife’s Red List team, you will apply the IUCN Red List Criteria and Guidelines to assess the extinction risk of bird species.
By collating, analysing and evaluating information from a wide variety of sources, liaising with species experts within and beyond the BirdLife Partnership.
By synthesising this information in clear, concise written summaries in the Red List database, and in topics proposing changes to the status of relevant species.

Ideally you will have:

A degree in a relevant biological or environmental subject, and preferably GIS skills.
A good understanding, and preferably practical experience, of the IUCN Red List.
Excellent English; other languages beneficial, especially Spanish and Portuguese.
Knowledge and experience of birds and conservation issues, preferably in the tropics.
A scientific approach and proven ability to work in a team and achieve shared goals.

See the full job description here.

Some of our benefits:

We are able to offer a hybrid model of working on-site and from home/remote for most roles, which helps to ensure a flexible work-life balance.
A chance to work in the award-winning David Attenborough Building, which brings together much of the Cambridge-based conservation community on a ‘conservation campus.’
A generous pension scheme, up to 12% company contribution.
Holiday starting at 25 days excluding Bank Holidays and increasing for every year of service up to a maximum of 28 days.
Full access to LinkedIn Learning with access to more than 13,000 high-quality, on-demand courses.
Employee Assistance Programme, including access to Health Assured online health portal.

BirdLife values a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all sections of the community. Find out more about our Diversity statement.

We are committed to building and maintaining an inclusive and supportive culture, a place where we can all be ourselves and succeed on merit. We aim to promote a more inclusive environment, which attracts all candidates and signals our commitment to celebrate and promote diversity.

We know that everyone’s needs are different. If you need us to make any adjustments to our recruitment process, let us know, we’ll do our best to make it happen.
