The aim of the Northumberland Peat Partnership (NPP) is to develop a peatland restoration programme across the partnership area, which is all of Northumberland north of the A69.

The partnership comprises of NGOs, local authorities and statutory agencies as well as land managers.

Its aim is to collectively facilitate positive management and restoration of peatland habitats across Northumberland, excluding the area already covered through the work of the North Pennines AONB (south of the A69).

Funding for this post was secured through the Great North Bog initiative, thanks to a grant it secured from the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation.


The Engagement Officer will support the NPP Manager in developing and delivering the NPP programme, facilitate partnership collaboration and communications and take the lead in engagement activities (with academic institutions, the public and landowners/managers).

The post is offered as a 3-year full-time permanent contract.

Funding has been secured, with 3 years remaining, but a continuation of the programme is expected assuming funding can be found.

For more information see Northumberland Peat Partnership.
