The role involves developing reliable data systems, supporting staff in the use of Esri tools such as ArcGIS, Survey123 and Field Maps, and ensuring accurate- recording and reporting across nature reserves, species, habitats and landowner engagement.

Data is essential to Northumberland Wildlife Trust’s mission to restore nature at scale. High quality spatial and ecological data enables the Trust to plan effective conservation work, target resources where they have the greatest impact, and track -long-term- changes across habitats and species. Robust data systems also ensure the Trust can meet funding, reporting and legal requirements. Strong data management underpins every major project, helping the Trust deliver meaningful, evidence-based- action for wildlife and communities across Northumberland.

The Data Officer will be part of the Nature Recovery Team but work with the Estates, Druridge Bay and Biodiversity Net Gain teams to ensure a consistent high-quality approach to data collection and management. The Data Officer will work alongside colleagues with similar roles in the Northumberland Peat Partnership and Red Squirrel Recovery Network teams, and those of neighbouring Wildlife Trusts.
