Transect Co-Ordinator (North Hampshire)

Opportunity image

Our Transect Co-ordinators help us to understand butterflies in their local area and, by extension, across the UK. They inspire people to better understand the butterflies that they see – contributing to scientific monitoring and supporting a major citizen science project – the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme (UKBMS).

At Butterfly Conservation, we want to create a world where butterflies and moths are enjoyed by everyone, forever. We need people to help co-ordinate butterfly transect walkers in their local area, making sure they have everything they need for their role. They will also help us to make sure that the data they collect gets to the right people. This data is used to inform decisions which help to conserve butterflies, both locally and nationally.

We are looking for a Transect Coordinator to support the surveyors in North Hampshire (covering the Local Authority areas of Hart District, Rushmoor District and Basingstoke and Deane District). There is a brilliant, established newtwork of transects and surveyors in the region so this role offers a great way to contribute to an established, thriving scheme.

You will be volunteering with a wide range of people helping us to monitor butterflies in your local environment.
