RSPB's Northern England region is recruiting for seasonal contract staff to monitor the breeding attempts of Hen harriers in the Forest of Bowland, North Tynedale in Northumberland and on the RSPB's Geltsdale reserve in the North Pennines.
As an Assistant Warden this role will involve the monitoring of hen harrier activity from early in the season to identify territories and breeding behaviour before managing the monitoring of any nesting attempts. This will involve working with and coordinating diverse groups of people including project partners, volunteers and other raptor enthusiasts.
The successful applicants will have a sound knowledge of upland bird ecology, experience of bird surveying and working in the uplands.
The RSPBs hen harrier work is supported by a four year Heritage Lottery funded grant, United Utilities and SITA Environmental Trust.
