Do you enjoy supporting people and would you like to make a positive impact for nature? We are looking for organised people with excellent communication skills to join our team of Volunteer Coordinators and to help support our sites and operations. You'll be trained in everything you need to know beforehand and we'll support you in your role every step of the way. This is a rewarding and enjoyable role, where you can gain experience in management and administration. You will be part of a small and friendly team of staff and volunteers.
This is a chance to gain experience in working with people of all ages, personnel management, data management, and to learn new skills and develop existing ones.
You'd be making a real difference by helping us keep the reserve well-supported by volunteers, ensuring they are safe for visitors and well-managed for wildlife.
There is room for development within the role, an opportunity to volunteer for additional days or role-share.
You'd be helping us to ensure that volunteers have a rewarding and enjoyable time with us. It's a wonderful opportunity to make a genuine contribution to wildlife conservation.
Pre-agreed expenses reimbursed.
The RSPB is a nature conservation charity that advocates for birds and wildlife, addressing the problems that threaten our environment. We focus on four key areas:
- We protect the special habitats that wildlife needs to survive and restore them where they have been lost. To achieve this, we protect and manage over 200 nature reserves across the UK, including Middleton Lakes & Sandwell Valley in the West Midlands.
- We work to restore lost and threatened species by understanding their needs for thriving and creating spaces for them to flourish, for example by advocating for Swift-friendly buildings in the West Midlands
- We connect people with nature by creating opportunities for individuals to experience wildlife first hand through public events, educational and training programmes, and volunteer opportunities at our nature reserves.
- We aim to save the environment by working to mitigate the impacts of climate change and helping wildlife adapt. We campaign on a range of issues to influence decision-makers and ensure that nature’s voice is heard.
