Development Officer - Countryside

The Countryside Development Officer role provides an exciting opportunity to get involved in a range of project development, project management and improvement activity, on both a site-specific and service-wide basis.

Significant investment has been committed to enhancing the visitor offer at the County Council’s largest countryside sites, whilst we continue to improve the Council’s wider countryside estate of green spaces for communities, visitors and environmental benefit.

With a focus on the County Council’s countryside sites, this diverse role will involve project development and procurement, project and contract management, report drafting, research and analysis and collaboration – making a difference to these sites and their users through service development and improvement.This post is fixed-term for 18 months and is predominantly office-based, with opportunities for flexible and hybrid working.

Occasional travel to countryside sites across the county and attendance at site-based meetings will be required.
