CAIRNGORMS CRANES PROJECT OFFICER
JOB DESCRIPTION We are seeking to appoint a Project Officer to take our Cairngorms Cranes project through a focused development year of assessment, planning and preparation. An initial feasibility report into the potential for reintroduction of cranes to the Cairngorms was completed in 2020 and the project partners are now keen to fully prepare for the reintroduction of cranes by translocation, as successfully modelled by the Great Crane Project in south-west England (see www.thegreatcraneproject.org.uk). The Project Officer will play a crucial role in taking the project from concept to practical action. The role requires experience of ecology/conservation, project management and community consultation, with strong communication skills and the ability to build a positive story around the benefits of a wildlife comeback for climate, nature and people. The role is full-time and fixed term for 12 months, with the potential for extension dependent on the future requirements of the project. Our preference is to appoint a candidate based in the Scottish Highlands close to the proposed release site in the Cairngorms, though consideration will be given to those located elsewhere in Scotland. The role is home-based, but regular travel to visit sites and stakeholders within the Cairngorms will be required.
