This is an exciting time to be involved in biodiversity data. New global and national targets for tackling the nature crisis will only work if they're supported by sound evidence. Which is where we come in. The NBN Atlas brings together wildlife data from 170 nature organisations across the UK and makes it accessible to all. It's the UK's largest source of wildlife data, providing the evidence that's needed to plan, achieve and measure nature's recovery. The NBN Atlas is also the UK link to the global biodiversity data portal, GBIF, so we're part of a worldwide network too. But there's much more to do. As we near the completion of a major upgrade of the NBN Atlas, we're planning an ambitious programme of enhancements to help us have an even greater impact for nature.

In this role you would report to our Lead Developer, and your key responsibilities would be:

• Implementing a programme of enhancements and improvements to the NBN Atlas

• JavaScript, jQuery, CSS.

You'll also need to be someone who's passionate a making a difference, enjoys being part of a team and has excellent organisational, problem-solving and communication skills. Applicants must be UK-based and eligible to work in the UK.

We can offer you:

• A meaningful role developing your skills and making a genuine difference for nature.
