Contract Type: Fixed Term Contract

Reference/IRC: IRC151047

Closing Date: 28/04/2024

Salary: £27,500 per annum

As a countryside property, the National Trust in Arlington is at the forefront of conservation – managing its estate through a small but dedicated team, to the highest international standards for conservation, access, and wider public benefits. As Area Ranger you'll lead the team in the day-to-day delivery of our land management and operations across Arlington, North Devon.

As the Area Ranger you'll manage a small team of Rangers working to deliver our woodland management and tree planting targets. Supported by Project Managers and the Lead Ranger you'll build and manage an effective and flexible work programme for you and your team. You'll support your fellow Rangers in undertaking engagement and conservation work, contributing towards our ambitious tree planting targets and deliver our Woodland Countryside Stewardship Agreement.

You will play a key role in providing exceptional standards related to tree safety, forestry contract management and ash dieback. Whilst you will have the creative vision and experience to design and implement new planting areas, which connect with our established woodlands, and will form the Arlington tree-scape of the future.

You will work closely with a mix of stakeholders, including the Arlington Ranger Team, projects team, tenants, contractors, statutory bodies, local community groups and volunteers to enable Arlington to deliver multiple nature, climate and people benefits. Good communication skills and willingness to work effectively as part of a team is essential.

Because this role covers a wide scope, delivery will need to be alongside some great contractors. You will have the necessary skills to find, engage and employ appropriately skilled and qualified people. You will have worked with contractors specifically in the forestry/woodland sector and understand and deliver excellent contract management.

As a senior member of the Ranger Team, you will take on a leadership role within the group, which will include some line management duties.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • experience of woodland and forestry management.
  • strong self and team leadership capability.
  • experience of delivering exceptional forestry and woodland contractor management.
  • experienced chainsaw operator with competency certification to reflect this.
  • understanding and experience of compliance related to trees and woodlands.
  • experience of designing planting areas in all forms; orchards, woodlands, wood-pasture etc.
  • understanding of the permissions and grants system related to tree planting.
  • awareness of the UK Woodland Assurance Standard (UKWAS) and experience of managing certified woodlands.
