This is exciting opportunity for an experienced project manager to deliver the Hedgerow Heroes project to restore and plant hedgerows with local groups across England.
You will be involved in the third year of the project, as two phases have already been completed. Local CPREs and their partners planted or restored 20k of hedgerow in the first year and final figures are just being compiled for Year 2. In 2023-4 there are nine local CPREs involved in this £450k project.
As project management officer, you will be responsible for the project’s life cycle from start to finish. This will involve establishing and managing the reporting frameworks for the project, engaging regularly with each local project team and bringing them together to share their experiences and support each other. There will be opportunities to capture the achievements of the project to share widely.
This is a fantastic opportunity to build a collaborative, inclusive community of Hedgerow Heroes all working together towards achieving shared goals.
