National Trust London & South East are looking for a Kent student or graduate to look at their wildlife data, and help establish systems to ensure historical data is collated digitally.

Potential projects and tasks could include:

• Looking at historical data for birds (breeding, migrating or whatever) and butterflies on the chalk/clifftop grassland
• Ensuring that we have good links with local “amateur naturalists” and species recorders and that all data is being recorded and can be analysed
• Identifying key species that we should manage for  – possibly focusing on those we have at present but also those that may move in or out because of climate change
• Producing  a series of recommendations for future management
• Helping with day-to-day management of local National Trust sites

This will be an unpaid position, but travel expenses can be claimed.
