Salary: £26,832 per annum

You will play a key role in maintaining our special places and ensuring they are presented to the highest possible standard. Based at the Countryside Office at West Kennett Farm your work will be split between the Avebury Estate and the wider North Wiltshire properties.

  • competence with machinery/equipment such as tractors, chainsaws, trailer towing and competence certificates as required by the property combined with practical skills applied across a broad range of habitats and estate management.
  • effective management of budgets ,finance and small projects.
  • a demonstrable passion for heritage, nature and the outdoors and experience of working on archaeologically sensitive areas and SSSI’s.
  • knowledge of Health & Safety legislation relevant to a countryside setting and an ability to work safely, leading on compliance including writing risk assessments as well as safety and environmental procedures.
