Job Vacancies at Dragonfly Hotspot: Restoring Stover Park – Project Officer; Project and Volunteer Administrator

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Public Rights of Way and Country Parks Team at Devon County Council and play a key part in transforming Stover Country Park.  Thanks to funding support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, National Highways, and our local partners, Devon County Council is about to commence work on the 3-year delivery phase project to revitalise the biodiversity, historic landscape, and recreational value of Stover Park.

This nationally important parkland is Grade II registered, and includes a 10-acre naturalised freshwater lake, designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to importance for dragonflies and invertebrates.  Project activities involve desilting the lake, conserving the granite gatehouse, upgrading the visitor/discovery centre, and enhancing visitor welcome and enjoyment, alongside delivering an ambitious activities plan.
