Full job description

About The Role

At WWT, we believe that the best way for people to understand and connect to wetlands is to experience them, so we bring awe-inspiring nature up close. We are looking for friendly, outgoing volunteers to support visitor activities over the summer holidays, bringing experiences to life! You will be directly involved in shaping unforgettable visitor encounters through your warm welcome, positive interactions, and the educational information & activities that you provide.

Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team, and we wouldn’t be able to maintain our internationally important wetland sites without their help. You will receive a very warm welcome, full induction & training, and be provided with the necessary equipment, uniform, and anything else needed to thrive in your role.

Main tasks

This summer Martin Mere has a range of activities available for visitors, so this role would involve:

Assisting with the visitor service desk – meeting and greeting visitors on arrival, selling bird food

Undertaking moth trapping activities, otter talks, and flamingo talks as well meeting and greeting visitors on arrival, selling bird seed and handing out the Dragonfly festival event guide.
Assisting with Dragonfly festival activities including a science show, storytime and a dragonfly bubble party.
Helping in the craft room to assist children making clay pots, badges, boats etc.
Helping to undertake the daily pond dipping activity by showing visitors what to do and helping to identify pond life

About You

About Us

We are WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whether you’re looking to meet new people, learn new skills or spend time in our wildlife-rich wetlands, there’s a volunteer role for you. Just a few hours spent volunteering can really make a world of difference to our wildlife, and to you.

So, come surround yourself with the wonder of wetlands, and the people who inject their energy and passion into them. Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. The only question left is, what role will you play?
