Overview

Fixed Term (5 yrs) • Full Time • Office-based • Oxford or Hybrid (with 2 days in the Office) • Salary – £28K FTE

We’re looking for someone brilliant at keeping things organised, on track, and moving forward—to support Headstart, a programme that’s helping to reshape how England restores its rivers and wetlands.

It’s a big, collaborative project (lots of partners, lots going on), so this role is right at the centre of making it all work.

Day to day, you might be:

• Keeping meetings, actions and plans organised
• Supporting budgets, invoices and financial tracking
• Helping coordinate partners and keep everyone aligned
• Making sure nothing falls through the cracks

You don’t need to come from an environmental background—but if you like the idea of your work contributing to nature recovery, that’s a big plus.

We’re looking for someone who’s:

• Super organised and detail-focused
• Proactive and happy juggling different tasks
• Reliable, approachable, and a good team player

You’ll be joining a friendly, purpose-driven team and working on something that genuinely matters.
