Further information

The North Pennines AONB Partnership is seeking an Engagement, Access and Interpretation Trainee for a period of one year with an anticipated start date in April 2021 and is funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Are you passionate about the environment and keen to engage communities in nature and sustainable agriculture? The North Pennines AONB Partnership are looking for a trainee to follow a course of conservation training with our staff unit and our partners.

The North Pennines AONB Partnership has three flagship nature recovery schemes: Fellfoot Forward, High Helbeck and Tees-Swale: Naturally Connected. Each project will have traineeship opportunities. The Fellfoot Forward and High Helbeck projects traineeships are being advertised separately, but in a parallel time frame.

This position will undertake training opportunities with the North Pennines AONB Partnership (and occasionally at the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority) and its partners to learn about informing, engaging and inspiring diverse groups of people in protected landscapes, predominantly providing support to the Tees-Swale - naturally connected programme.

The successful candidate will be self-employed. Bursary payments equate to the hourly rate of the living wage determined by Durham County Council, however, as it is a training payment, there are no sickness or holiday payments and it is not taxable. Bursary payments will be made fortnightly in arrears on receipt of a timesheet and subject to satisfactory progress. If successful, you will need to register as self-employed and obtain appropriate public liability insurance.

Applicants should hold a minimum of a Level 3 qualification or equivalent (eg A Levels) in a subject related to conservation, communications, engagement, education, land management or heritage together with having experience of volunteering or work experience in nature conservation, education, youth groups, heritage management or communications.

Interviews are scheduled to be held via Microsoft Teams week commencing 8 March 2021.
