Contract Supervisor, Scottish Borders

3 weeks ago

Scottish Borders, United Kingdom Euroforest Ltd Full time

Do you work in a rural industry already and are looking for a change? Are you a machine operator that is looking to progress their career in forestry? Do you want a job where you are always keen to get out of bed in the morning? Do you want to work with one of the most forward-looking companies in our sector? We have a vacancy for a Contract Supervisor based in the Scottish Borders.

We are the UK’s largest Timber Harvesting company. Employing over 130 people across the country. Our employees are outdoor enthusiasts and come from diverse backgrounds such as agriculture, farming and forestry. Take a look at this video to get a better idea of where we work and what we do:
Unlike many others in our sector, we believe in giving you autonomy to run an area on a day-to-day basis just as if it was your own business but with support always on hand. Part of the key to your success will be to build relationships with clients, customers, colleagues and contractors.

Plus, have the comfort of knowing that you are working in an industry that produces the most carbon-friendly building product there is, and it’s renewable as once a forest is felled it is replanted and the whole cycle starts again.

Working with our Harvesting Managers who buy trees, millions of them every year, you’ll need a good business head to make sure you work closely together to offer our clients the very best service, and be able to learn the different options and the financial implications of them all.

You will build relationships with our established hauliers and harvesting contractors to plan how to best tackle each site to protect both the site and our people working on it, this will all be overseen by your Area manager who will be on hand to assist in all aspects of your day to day work. Then there’s all the technology; harvesting machines that are programmed to cut the best from every tree, forwarders that know precisely where every felled tree is lying, specialised lorries which minimize their impact on the roads, mapping software on your laptop, your phone and on the screen of the harvesting machines all of which provides you with state of the art technology to assist you with industry leading contract supervision.

We offer a competitive salary, a company vehicle for business and private use, along with all the things you need to run your business both in the office and from home. We have a generous pension scheme and life insurance, along with other benefits such as Cycle to Work scheme.

So, if you’d like to apply, or simply get some more information about us or about the role, please do get in touch by any of the usual methods - we’d love to hear from you.
