Ecological Evidence Trainees are be based in our Evidence and Connected Landscapes Team. There is a maximum of Evidence 2 trainees at any one time.
As the Nature sector moves to an evidence-based approach it is the Evidence team that collect, analyse and report on the wildlife, environmental and ecological data used for GWT and some local government decision making. Data is collected and analysed by a friendly team of staff, trainees and Citizen Science volunteers.
This is 12-month voluntary traineeship with 21 hours per week schedule with some flexibility.
Although based in Gloucester, this role involves travelling to nature reserves across Gloucestershire, so independent transport is essential March – October.
It is the nature of the work that there may be the occasional option to attend evening and weekend events. However, this is not a requirement of the role. You are not obligated to work beyond your standard hours. However, should you wish to participate in evening or weekend events, you are welcome to do so.

It is the nature of the work of Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust that tasks and responsibilities are, in many circumstances unpredictable and varied.
We aim to be an equal opportunity employer and are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment.
Being a charity we hope all recruitment agencies will appreciate that we want to save money where possible - so thank you, but unless we get in touch, we don't need you help with this role quite yet.
