This is an exciting opportunity to join the Yorkshire Marine Nature Partnership at a pivotal time for marine and coastal environmental management.
We are seeking an ambitious and enthusiastic Partnership Project Officer to help drive collaboration, influence positive change, and deliver meaningful outcomes for Yorkshire's unique and diverse marine environment.
As a key member of our team, you will build and maintain strong relationships with local, regional and national partners, bringing together organisations, communities and stakeholders around shared priorities for marine nature recovery. Using your excellent communication and engagement skills, you will foster active cross-sector collaboration, strengthen community connections, and help turn ideas into action.
