From the UK Squirrel Accord: 

Lead landscape-scale conservation, building partnerships with landowners and volunteers to protect red squirrels and woodlands. Join a nationally significant programme with strong government backing and continuity expected to 2029.

Play a central role in professionally delivering an established and expanding programme to coordinate landscape-scale grey squirrel management across northern England with potential to expand into the Midlands. Working with the UKSA Director, project steering group and wider partnership, the successful individual will enthusiastically and engagingly lead regional delivery while contributing to national strategy and best practice.

Grey squirrel impacts on woodland condition, resilience and native species are well established, and effective management requires coordinated, landscape-scale action. This role will expand and strengthen a network of grey squirrel management groups, working with landowners, stakeholders and volunteers to deliver that action on the ground.
