MWT is seeking individuals who are passionate about nature conservation and wish to contribute their expertise to help shape the future of wildlife in the island.

Simon Cain, chair of the board of trustees at MWT said: ’It’s an exciting time for MWT, our charitable work has expanded significantly over the last five years, as our work to conserve and restore Manx nature has become increasingly more important and relevant for people and organisations in the Isle of Man.

‘We are now seeking new trustees for our council to help steer our future trajectory and I’d be delighted to hear from people who might be interested to join.’

MWT is looking for individuals from diverse professional backgrounds to join its board of trustees.

Applicants with experience in conservation, law, finance, or other relevant fields are particularly encouraged to apply.
