Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is one of the UK’s fastest growing nature conservation organisations and seeks to appoint a Project Assistant Part Time.
We are looking for a bright and energetic Project Assistant to join our Vale of York & Derwent Team to help deliver the YDCP Invasive Non-Native Species (INNS) Catchment Strategy, as well as supporting practical reserves work in autumn and winter. Yorkshire Derwent Catchment Partnership | Yorkshire Wildlife Trust
This role will primarily focus on the treatment of INNS (mostly giant hogweed) with pesticides and liaising with landowners to further the treatment of INNS. Working alongside the Partnership’s project team, you will assist delivering the annual INNS control programme and support producing the annual INNS treatment report and updating the INNS Catchment Strategy. Our INNS programme is focused on the eradication of giant hogweed throughout the Derwent Catchment by 2030. As this is a phototoxic species, which we treat using chemicals, you must be prepared to adhere to strict Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and biosecurity protocols.

Treating INNS along watercourses requires the ability to navigate uneven ground while carrying loads of up to 12kg on your back. It’s strenuous but very rewarding as this work helps native species to thrive, while protecting the stability of riverbanks and other waterways.
Work will often be carried out from early morning to avoid the heat of the day, so excellent time management skills are required. As you will often be working in public and private areas and engaging with landowners, you’ll need to be able to diplomatically interact with people in a positive and proactive manner.
