We’re looking for someone who can spot opportunities, build powerful partnerships and unlock new sources of income to support our growing impact. You’ll lead the development of ANT’s income-generation strategy, growing support from corporate partners, major donors and individual supporters, while exploring new commercial opportunities.

Working with colleagues across ANT, you’ll shape compelling propositions, strengthen relationships with supporters and lead our fundraising team to deliver sustainable income growth. You’ll also help develop our Biodiversity Net Gain offering at Lower Chew Forest, opening up new opportunities to support nature recovery.

This is an opportunity to shape the future of a growing environmental charity and help create permanent woodland across the Bristol-Avon catchment. By bringing people, partnerships and resources together, you’ll help deliver lasting benefits for wildlife, climate and local communities for generations to come.
