Description
Weald to Waves is a visionary 100-mile nature recovery corridor across Sussex. As a land manager led initiative, we bring together farmers, communities, schools, businesses, councils, and services to create, connect and restore a ribbon of nature-rich landscape from the forests of the High Weald to the kelp forests of the Sussex Bay. We want the corridor to serve as a proof of concept for restoring biodiversity and ecosystem health, balancing the needs of sustainable agriculture with ecological and social resilience.
Launched in 2021, Weald to Waves is coordinated by the Knepp Wildland Foundation and represents a network of projects, strategies, and groups across Sussex. It is a nationally significant initiative, attracting funding and interest from a range of actors with influence over our natural world.
We are seeking a knowledgeable and dedicated Landscape Advisor to join our team. You will serve as a crucial link between the project and local farmers and land managers, providing guidance on agricultural practices, habitat creation and restoration, natural capital and funding opportunities.
The ideal candidate will have experience of working with our farming sector, maybe with a farming background. We are looking for someone with an active interest in nature-friendly farming, collaborative working ecosystem services, and habitat surveying.
