You will have the chance to take real ownership of projects, shape how we work with stakeholders, and play a crucial role in delivering healthier, cleaner waters.

- Flexible working arrangements
- The opportunity to lead meaningful, visible projects
- Professional development opportunities
- A real chance to help shape a growing environmental charity
