The Crichton Carbon Centre (CCC) is excited to be recruiting a new Landscape and Wetland Lead to join our team. This is an entirely new role for someone who can help expand our 15 years of experience of peatland restoration and land management into wider catchment and wetland management.
The primary focus of this role initially will be delivering the objectives of our new “Cairn to Coast” project and wider objectives of the National Lottery Heritage Fund funded Solway Coast and Marine Landscape Connections Project (SCAMP Landscape Connections). The Cairn to Coast project has been developed to take the Centre’s approaches to prioritising and designing successful peatland restoration projects to wider catchment, wetland and coastal habitat restoration and management.
As this is a new position at the Centre, we are looking for an enthusiastic individual looking to use their experience to develop the role, guide CCC and our partners and ultimately deliver exciting and impactful ecosystem restoration projects in the southwest of Scotland.
If you see this as a great opportunity to use your skills and help us deliver on the ground action, are seeking the camaraderie of working as part of a team and wider network of partner organisations and would enjoy helping us develop as an organisation, please answer this call!
