The roles we are recruiting for are broad and varied spanning strategic leadership and positioning, governance, financial expertise and movement building. We have consistently grown in both resource and profile since our inception, and it will be important to demonstrate your experience and suitability throughout this process.
Foundational to the mutual suitability of any candidate joining our trustee group is their personal alignment with our values and ways of working.
In nature, living systems are complex, interconnected, and adaptive. They don’t follow rigid plans. They evolve through relationships, feedback, and continual adaptation. Our Wild by Nature strategy focuses on systems transformation because real change happens when public thinking shifts, power is influenced and rewilding becomes embedded in our everyday practice. We have learned that this type of lasting change doesn’t come from control or hierarchy; it grows from trust, adaptability, and interdependence – the very qualities that allow natural systems to thrive. It’s about shifting from control to connection, from hierarchy to networks, and from rigid plans to adaptive principles. It’s about leading like nature – and creating the conditions for people and ideas to flourish.
We won’t deliver systemic change by doing everything, but by deepening relationships, aligning our efforts, and choosing the few priorities that truly shift the system. With the lens of ‘relationships are our infrastructure’ we encourage our team to be:
- Ambitious but selective.
- Collaborative by default.
- Confident in backing what makes the biggest difference.
In our trustees, we are seeking leaders who understand the role is not to command, but to cultivate fertile conditions, to enable the ecosystem to thrive. When we do, people naturally flourish – bringing their own leadership, unique perspectives, and collective talents to life.
As all roles we are seeking are trustees first and foremostly, all candidates are encouraged to read the trustee profile and responsibilities first.
