Director (Interim)

Who we are

At More Trees BANES we are passionate about trees, the environment and people combining these
passions to achieve our Vision of:

A dynamic and diverse tree rich landscape that regenerates our environment,
communities and the natural world.

We grow, plant and care for trees with local provenance, using tree seed collected from a wide
variety of sources around Bath and Northeast Somerset ensuring that our trees, hedgerows and
woodlands are resilient to climate change and disease.

We aim to engage a wide range of people in our work, including those that would not normally
get the opportunity to be involved in environmental projects. To support this, we have
developed a unique model for growing trees in the community with a central
nursery Hub which supports an expanding network of smaller community (and school based)
nurseries.

What you’ll be doing

More Trees BANES is going through a period of change. We are looking for an Interim Director
for an initial period of 3 months. You will be someone who shares our values and has the
vision, skills and experience to lead the charity during this period.

The Director will be focussed on the smooth design and delivery of our operations and support
to colleagues as we make a strategic transition. The Director will also shape and grow the
charity in partnership with volunteers, the board and colleagues, in line with our Vision,
mission & Values.

We are looking for someone experienced at balancing operational delivery and strategic
ambition. You must be able to step in a short notice to support fundraising and coach the team
of two colleagues. You will establish good practice early on and high-quality delivery in all
aspects of our work from tree growing to volunteer management.
