Kew is the world’s leading botanic gardens, at the forefront of plant and fungal science, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a major visitor attraction. We want a world where plants and fungi are understood, valued and conserved – because our lives depend on them. We use the power of our science and the rich diversity of our gardens and collections to provide knowledge, inspiration and understanding of why plants and fungi matter to everyone. Reporting to the Head of Conservation Science you will be responsible for leading our seed conservation research and managing a team of five core-funded staff plus a portfolio of dynamic projects which currently support eight members of the team. We are looking for an experienced, pro-active and dynamic leader for this key aspect of Kew
