Hours: 36 per week

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated arborist climber. Must have 2-3 years working experience.

You will be part of a specialist arborist team carrying out potentially hazardous arboricultural and forestry operations, which may be required to operate specialist forestry machines including heavy plant lifting equipment, and LGV operations.

The successful candidate will have an SVQ level 3 in Arboriculture or Forestry as well as Professional Tree inspection certificate, LANTRA and NPTC certificates 201, 202, 203, 301, 302, 206/306,305, 307, 308, 309, 42, 46, 47, and 48.

A current, clean, full driving licence is essential and C1 / C1E is desirable (medium sized vehicles, with or without trailers).

Please see the attached documents for further information about the role.

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.  For roles in grade 5 or above, annual increments in our contribution zones are dependent on achieving agreed performance goals.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
