Essex Wildlife Trust was founded as a Charity and Limited Company in 1959 by Essex
people who were determined to protect interesting wildlife and important habitats and
countryside. Essex Wildlife Trust is a registered charity, protecting wildlife for the future

county, organising staff, volunteers, contractors, liaising with landowners and neighbours.
You will be working towards the EWT Living Landscapes Vision.
Responsibility for our nature reserves is divided up between reserve staff, the Reserve
Manager will line manage a number of reserve staff and have volunteer wardens reporting
to them.
Each nature reserve has a warden responsible for implementing the reserve management,
whether this is staff or volunteer, so the Reserves Manager job is to support the work of the
warden to ensure that the reserve management is correctly implemented. This is achieved
by organising an annual Action Plan visits which sets out the year’s work programme,
stating who and when the work will be done.
The Trust is signed up to many of the Agri-environment schemes, so the Reserve Manager
must ensure that the terms of the agreements are met and any agreed work under is
completed. There are other grants that the Trust benefits from e.g. English Natures reserve
Enhancement Scheme and the Woodland Grant Scheme.
The Reserve Manager is also responsible for ensuring that consents and agreement for
reserve management are in place.
The Trust welcomes people onto most of our reserves, therefore the Reserve Manager needs
to ensure that our reserves are welcoming and safe for the public to enjoy and ensure that

TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT
Name of Employer: Essex Wildlife Trust
Title of Post: Reserve Manager
A detailed job description is available but this does not form part of the terms of employment.
Responsible to: Senior Reserve Manager who is Line Manager for this post.
Place of Work: Abbotts Hall Farm
Hours of Work: 37.5 hours per week, normally 7.5 per day excluding lunch breaks and other breaks.
Normal office hours are 9 am to 5 pm; however, work will be required outside these hours, including
some work at evenings, weekends and Bank Holidays for which time may be taken off in lieu.
Guidance and procedures on claiming time off in lieu are included in the Staff Handbook, located on
SharePoint.
Itinerary: You must complete a staff itinerary in advance for each week for your Line Manager to
read, this must show the days you are working, the hours you intend to work and indicate key jobs you
are undertaking. This is held on Microsoft Outlook Calendar. Instructions are in the Staff Handbook.
Salary: up to a maximum of £ 27,590 per annum depending on experience and qualifications and
subject to review with your Line Manager. Salary is paid monthly in arrears. If for some reason it is
clear that the Trust has over paid or under paid on one month it will adjust this by deduction or
addition on the next month. Rates of pay are reviewed in November each year. Details of salary
during Probationary period will be set out in your letter of appointment.
Travelling: When using your own vehicle on Trust business (excluding ordinary commuting) a
mileage allowance may be payable (full details and current rates are available in the Staff Handbook).
When you make a travel claim you will be asked to confirm that your private vehicle is appropriately
insured, taxed and has an MOT (where applicable).
Travel at the beginning or end of the working day to/from your normal place of work is within your
own time. It is not classed as working time and you are therefore not entitled to record time off in lieu
for these journeys. If an employee travels from their place of work to another work related location or
temporary place of work, this is normally in work time. If an employee’s role requires them to travel
from home to a temporary place of work at the start of the day it would be reasonable for an employee
to spend the first 30 minutes of the journey in their own time. The same would apply at the end of the
day if an employee travels from a temporary place of work to home in that it would be reasonable for
30 minutes of that journey to be in their own time. Full guidance can be found in the Staff Handbook
on SharePoint. Specific exceptions to this can be agreed by your Line Manager for going on a
particular visit or training outside of Essex, where the length of the journey is more than a normal
journey time you would do within Essex.
Annual Leave: Our holiday year runs from 1st January to 31st December. For a complete holiday year
full-time staff are entitled to 23 working days in addition to days in lieu of statutory bank holidays
rising to 25 days after 5 years’ service.
Holidays must be taken in consultation with other staff and with the agreement of your Line Manager.
If you commence work part way through the holiday year, you need to base your entitlement on the
remaining complete months in that holiday year.
You will not normally be able to take more than 3 consecutive weeks as holiday and at least three
working days must be taken between November 1st and March 1st. Annual leave must normally be
taken in the calendar year it is due, but some days can be carried over with agreement of the Line
Manager providing they are taken by 31st March of the following year.
If you leave your employment your holiday entitlement will need to be recalculated for the completed
months that you have worked in that holiday year. Discuss any over taken holidays with your Line
Manager.
Probationary Period: 6 months during which time the employer or the employee may terminate the
employment upon one week's notice.
Length of Contract: This is a permanent post.
Other Expenses: Other legitimate claims for expenses on Trust business can be made on the
appropriate claim form providing these have been agreed in advance by the appropriate Budget Head.
Pension: The Trust or its subsidiaries will offer a pension contribution of 4% to a pension scheme
approved by Essex Wildlife Trust and which meets the criteria for auto-enrolment, providing that the
member of staff has passed probation and also contributes 3% into that same pension scheme.
Notice: After the probationary period, one month's notice of termination of employment is required by
either side. The Employer is required to give one additional week of notice for each completed year
of continuous employment exceeding 4 completed years to a maximum of 12 weeks’ notice. The Trust
may direct a staff member to take any outstanding holiday during the period of notice.
Disciplinary, Grievance and Appeals Procedures: Clear procedures for dealing with any
Disciplinary matter or Grievance or Appeal are set out in a separate document as part of the Staff
Handbook that may need to be updated from time to time and does not, therefore, form part of these
terms of employment.
An employee should take any Grievance or Appeal in the first instance to the Line Manager to whom
he/she is responsible. Any Disciplinary matter will, in the first instance, be raised by an Employee's
Line Manager.
Retirement Age: The Trust does not operate a compulsory retirement age for its employees.
Sickness and Sick Pay:
A member of staff who is not able to attend work must notify their Line Manager as soon as possible
on the first day of the absence. This notification should be before 10.00 a.m. except in exceptional
circumstances.
A friend or relative may make contact on behalf of the member of staff, but the member of staff
retains responsibility and must personally make contact with her/his Line Manager as soon as s/he is
able.
The Line Manager must be informed of the reason for absence, the possible length and likely return
date and any medical advice that has been given which relates to the return to work.
If it is not possible to give a return date, the member of staff should make contact at least every three
days and must submit any relevant documentation as soon as possible.
Failure to follow the notification procedure given above may result in the absence being recorded as
unauthorised.
On return to work the individual should participate with the Line Manager in a conversation to discuss
the absence and the reason for it. One of the purposes of this conversation will be to establish whether
the Line Manager can provide any support to the employee which could facilitate attendance at work
in the future.
The individual should agree on request to be interviewed and/or examined by an occupational doctor
nominated by the Trust, and the Trust will meet all related expenses.
If a member of staff is absent for 1 – 3 calendar days inclusive they should complete Part A of the
Appendix 2 Form Statement of Sick Absence and forward this to their Line Manager and the CEO’s
PA for confidential filing. Appendix 2 Statement of Sick Absence Form is available from Trust Main
Offices, from the Computer U Drive under Staff Information – Forms, or Sharepoint.
If a member of staff is absent for 4 - 7 calendar days inclusive, they should complete and submit both
part A and part B of Appendix 2 Form Statement of Sick Absence as a self-certification form to their
Line Manager on return to work. The form will then be forwarded to the CEO’s PA for confidential
filing.
If a member of staff is absent for 8 or more calendar days, a Statement of Fitness for Work (provided
by the GP) is required covering them from the 8th day of absence and should be sent promptly to the
Line Manager who will pass it to the CEO’s PA for confidential filing. If the absence continues
beyond the period covered further statements are required until a return to work.
Sick pay entitlements increase in relation to the time that a member of staff has been in continuous
employment with the Trust or its subsidiaries. The following are the total amounts of sick pay that a
member of staff is entitled to receive during any 12 month period as a result of sick absence which has
been properly notified to the Trust. (For these purposes the 12 month period is a rolling period of 12
consecutive months calculated from the first day of absence).
Up to one year of continuous service
Two weeks’ full pay, two weeks’ half pay
After one year of continuous service
One month’s full pay, one month’s half pay
After three years’ of continuous service
Two months’ full pay, two months’ half pay
After five years’ continuous service
Three months’ full pay, three months’ half pay
It should be noted that Company Sick Pay is discretionary and each situation will be subject to review
and dealt with on an individual basis.
If statutory sick pay (SSP) is for a longer period than any of the above then SSP will be paid to the end
of that longer statutory period. In order to qualify for sick pay then staff must follow the procedure set
out in their contract and in this policy. If there are exceptional circumstances then the Trust will use
discretion and this would involve the Line Manager discussing the circumstances with the CEO who
would come to a decision.
Full details relating to sickness and sick pay are found in the Staff Handbook.
Contact outside office hours: The Trust or its officers may need to contact you outside office hours
for important Trust business.
Redundancy: The Trust will, of course, observe any statutory requirements with regard to
redundancy. The details are available on request but as these are complicated and are changed from
time to time, the details cannot form part of these terms of employment.
Statement of Health and Safety Policy: The Trust provides a copy of this statement for all staff and
expects its staff to comply with this statement. This policy has to be reviewed regularly and therefore
the detail is not part of the terms of employment.
Staff Handbook: A Staff Handbook is available for all Trust staff on the Intranet. It must be
understood that this handbook and the details in it form clear guidance to staff, but do not form part of
a contract of employment. It is to be found on the Intranet, or a member of staff can request a copy if
they do not have access to the Intranet.
Copyright: Copyright material created during employment is the property of the Trust.
Confidentiality: You shall not use or disclose to any person either during or at any time after your
employment with the Trust any confidential information about the business affairs of the Trust, or
about any other matters which may come to your knowledge in the course of your employment. For
the purposes of this clause, confidential information means any information or matter which is not in
the public domain and which relates to the affairs of the Trust.
The restriction in this clause does not apply to:
(a) prevent you from making a protected disclosure within the meaning of section 43A of the
Employment Rights Act 1996; or
(b) use or disclosure that has been authorised by the Company, is required by law or by your
employment
Right to Change Terms of Employment: We reserve the right to make reasonable changes to any of
your terms of employment. You will be notified in writing of any change as soon as possible and in
any event within one month of the change.

agreement. No persons other than you and the Trust have any rights under this agreement and this
agreement shall not be enforceable by any person than you and the Trust.
