Vacancy: SAVE is looking for a new Conservation Officer
5 June 2019
SAVE is seeking a full-time conservation officer to join the team
SAVE Britain’s Heritage is at the forefront of national heritage conservation. We intervene to help historic buildings and places in serious danger of demolition or decay. We stand apart from other organisations by bringing together architects, engineers, planners and investors to offer alternative proposals.
We are a small, dynamic and friendly team, and this is an ideal post for someone who wants to help make a real difference to our historic built environment. You will liaise with local groups, conservation officers and other heritage bodies, comment on planning applications, as well as mount campaigns to save threatened buildings. Excellent writing and analytical skills are essential for this position. You will have a genuine enthusiasm for architecture and the ability to work quickly and with flexibility to tight deadlines. From drafting press releases and researching reports, to liaising with journalists and community groups, no single day is the same.
SAVE is a registered charity and it is governed by an elected committee of trustees.
To apply, please send a CV and covering letter setting out how you meet the job description criteria to Leigh Stanford administrator@savebritainsheritage.org
The closing date for applications is 1st July 2019. Interviews will be held on 9th and 10th July 2019.
