Fixed term to 31/03/26 with possibility of extension subject to securing further

We are recruiting for a Project Officer to join the WaterSpace team to support the delivery of
the WaterSpace Programme. If you have experience of community engagement, developing and

WaterSpace is a strategic programme of projects focused on the improvement of our rivers and
waterways. The WaterSpace programme sits within Bath & North East Somerset Council’s Green
Infrastructure and Nature Recovery Team and is an important element of the Council’s response
to address the Ecological Emergency.

We have secured significant funding to deliver two strategic green infrastructure projects –
the Bath River Line and WaterSpace Connected. The post holder will work across both projects
and other projects designed to improve our waterways. The project will work with several
B&NES services that include Active Travel and Parks Team, and with external partners,
including Canal & River Trust, Environment Agency, and Wessex Water. The project involves:

  • Nature recovery including wetland restoration and pollinator planting.
  • Improvements to green spaces and the public realm
  • Access and interpretation improvements
  • Events and activities
  • Delivering new and improved cycle and walkways.

The post holder will be responsible for developing and coordinating a community engagement
programme, including delivering elements of the programme, developing interpretation materials
and a project website, and supporting project managers to deliver elements of the WaterSpace
Programme.
