Keep Britain Tidy is an iconic and dynamic charity, providing first-class solutions to environmental challenges. For more than 60 years as the country’s anti-litter charity, we work tirelessly to combat waste and neglect so that everyone can love where they live. Using our world-class research and working with partners, we develop game-changing programmes that fly the flag for clean, accessible and attractive beaches, rivers, parks and green spaces. The work of Keep Britain Tidy has never been more informed, important and urgent as it is today.
We are looking for a passionate and outstanding programme manager to join our RiverCare & BeachCare programme. Run by Keep Britain Tidy in partnership with programme funder, Anglian Water, it works across the Anglian Water region and aims to reconnect people to their environment through local volunteering opportunities. This is an exciting role in a fast-paced charity and a highly successful team.
The successful applicant will have experience of overseeing and monitoring large-scale volunteer programmes, working with a wide variety of partner organisations, and hold a good knowledge of environmental sustainability, and ecological challenges in the water and marine environment.
