There are two posts available. A career graded developmental role open to graduate applicants 'just starting out' and a role for a more experienced person. Working with us will give you a wide range of opportunities to support whole organisation and landscape management in the UK, translating policy into action and working on climate change adaptation in a protected landscape context. You will also participate in a range of policy and strategy development, research and strategic work with partners to help look after the Peak District National Park on a day to day basis. These are full-time temporary roles for 12 months, based in Bakewell in the Peak District with blended working options.

For level 1 You will need to be a numerate graduate (geography, sustainability, environmental studies/science/management etc.) with some experience of research, analysis, written reporting and presentation of data. For level 2, in addition to level 1, you will be able to demonstrate a higher level of experience and knowledge across research and data analysis as well as in developing and delivering policy with partners in a protected landscape context.
