Natural Capital Tools Manager - United Kingdom - NatureScot
Description
Job Purpose SummaryHelp us tackle the twin crises of biodiversity loss and climate change by enabling a natural
capital approach to land management across Scotland. This post will be instrumental in the
development of a landscape-scale natural capital tool designed to help accelerate nature
recovery and bring the benefits of nature closer to people. As part of NatureScot's
transformative Farming with Nature Programme (FwN), previously known as the Natural Capital
Pilot Programme, the post holder will work alongside our existing Natural Capital Manager to
jointly manage and develop the landscape scale natural capital tool.
The tool will be the first of its kind in Scotland and is being developed in partnership with
Liverpool John Moores University. By quantifying the ecosystem services that nature provides,
the tool will help decision makers identify opportunities and scenarios that maximize benefits
for both people and nature.
Continuing with and expanding on our current co-design approach, the role will involve working
closely with project partners and stakeholders to refine the design of the tool, manage the
development and contribute to longer-term planning and legacy, and support its testing within a
number of local landscapes across Scotland.
