If you are enthusiastic, inspiring and enabling communities to take positive action for nature and climate and help drive real landscape scale change, this job is for you.


This exciting role is an amazing opportunity to work in one of the UK's finest coastal landscapes - it is highly designated and includes Special Areas of Conservation, National Nature Reserves, Sites of Special Scientific Interest and forms an important part of the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, South Devon Heritage Coast and South West Coast Path National Trail.
