Project Manager - Upper Irthing PRISM Landscape Recovery Project

PRISM is an acronym for Peatlands, Rivers, Invasives, Species Recovery and Meadows, which gives some idea of just how wide ranging the project will be. This breadth has been guided by the key criteria of this round of Landscape Recovery funding:

• Net Zero (peatland restoration and woodland creation).


• Protected Sites (designated habitats such as SSSI's, NNR's and SAC's - the project area has more than 20 designated parcels of land).


• Wildlife rich habitats (riparian corridors, species rich grasslands, transitional habitats; Invasive species control and species recovery within these areas).


• Food/timber production (working with project partners to better understand how working land can support both thriving habitats and species, and commercial enterprise).


The Project Manager will have oversight of the whole project programme and team. They will be the primary point of contact for all project related matters, especially for project partners (including local FE teams) who are key to the effective development of the project.
