Full time (35 hours per week)
Hybrid working, based in Pembrokeshire with occasional UK travel.
Campaign for National Parks has launched a new marine project, working with Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority and a wide range of partners.
Pembrokeshire’s coast is outstanding: its seas support rich wildlife and deep cultural connections, yet many marine protected areas remain in poor condition. This collaborative, evidence‑led project explores how better joined‑up planning across land and sea could deliver improved outcomes for nature and people. Working closely with local communities and stakeholders, the project will consider a range of options — including the potential seaward extension of the National Park or designation of a Marine National Park — to help ensure Pembrokeshire’s coast and seas thrive for generations to come.
The project, funded by Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, will build on interest across Wales and England and include supporting the National Marine Park Alliance. It will work with young people to connect their passion for the sea and develop leadership skills, ensuring their voices help shape decision making.
As Marine Project Manager, you will lead delivery of this pioneering project to explore how nature and communities can be supported through integrated land and sea planning and management.
Hosted by Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, the role offers a unique opportunity to work at the heart of one of the UK’s most distinctive coastal and marine environments.
You will be the marine lead for the Campaign for National Parks team, working across programmes, advocacy, policy, campaigns, communications and fundraising.
We recognise that the environment sector is under‑represented by people of colour, those from low‑income backgrounds, LGBTQ+ and disabled people. We want to change that and warmly welcome applications from people from all backgrounds. We can offer support with the recruitment process (including reasonable adjustments) to ensure everyone can apply on an equal footing. If you would like support, please contact us.
