Data Insights Manager
Every Wildlife Trust is part of The Wildlife Trusts federation and a corporate member of the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts, a registered charity in its own right founded in 1912 and one of the founding members of IUCN – the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. Taken together this federation of 47 charities is known as The Wildlife Trusts.
The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. We recognise that this will require big, bold changes in the way The Wildlife Trusts work, not least in how we mobilise others and support them to organise within their own communities.
We are seeking a knowledgeable and enthusiastic data insights manager to help us make the most of our existing data across The Wildlife Trusts, alongside developing new innovations to improve understanding of our supporters, our contribution to nature’s recovery and the values that the public place on nature.
We are looking for a skilled data specialist to help us to draw together and take forward our data insights work across The Wildlife Trusts. Working directly to the Director for Climate Change and Evidence, the postholder will lead on and manage our existing large-scale data insights projects, including the Great Big Nature Survey (the largest UK-wide survey of nature values); oversee our analysis of internal data collected across the federation of Wildlife Trusts; and undertake data analysis of our external impact, from brand awareness to our major public engagement programmes such as 30 Days’ Wild. In addition, the postholder will lead a new programme of work on how to better understand our impact, and support the coordination of data activities across relevant teams within the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts.
The Wildlife Trusts value passion, respect, trust, integrity, pragmatic activism and strength in diversity. Whilst we are passionate in promoting our aims, we are not judgmental and are inclusive. We particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented within our sector, including people from minority backgrounds and people with disabilities. We are committed to creating a movement that recognises and truly values individual differences and identities.
