Airfield Wildlife Control Operator

5 months ago


Inverness, United Kingdom Air Partner Plc Full time

Do you love the outdoors? Are you passionate about aviation and/ or wildlife? Do you like to work autonomously? If so, look no further, as we are looking for a full-time Airfield Wildlife Control Operator (AWCO) to work across our RAF **Lossiemouth and Inverness** sites on a **Zero Hour Contract**. If you are flexible, have a full driving license and shooting experience and are not afraid of lone working and shifts, this may be the role for you. If you like aircraft, even better

Wildlife, particularly birds, pose a high risk to air safety, especially during critical points of flight, take-off and landing. The purpose of the AWCO is to eliminate the presence of birds and other wildlife on the airfield, reducing the risk to all aircraft using the airfield.

Wildlife is naturally attracted to the airfield due to several factors, the primary being the abundance of food. Equipped with a 4x4 vehicle, bioacoustics, pyrotechnics and (when all else fails) a shotgun, you will deter the wildlife from settling on the airfield and encourage all bird populations to stay well clear.. All movements and activities are recorded in a watch log, with all lethally controlled animals dispatched under license as a last resort to preserve the safety of our aircraft.

**Job Type**: Zero Hour Contract

**Salary**: £12

**What we are looking for**:

- Live within a maximum of 45 minutes’ drive from both _**RAF Lossiemouth and Inverness **_(essential)
- Happy to work autonomously for long periods of time with nothing but your vehicle and your hand-held radio for company
- Comfortable with working outside in all weathers
- Have an ability to think on your feet and cope with pressure as it arise
- Shooting experience would be an advantage, but all training will be provided. You will need to be comfortable with the possibility of dispatching wildlife as last resort however
- If you hold a shotgun and/ or firearms certificates that would be a huge advantage, but we will assist you to obtain these if you are successful - you must however be able to obtain and maintain such certificates.

If you are a keen photographer, this is also an advantage as it could be useful in documentation.

If the above describes your current specialist skillset or offers an exciting new career that will pull you out of your current role, please do get in touch and let’s see if this uniquely interesting role is right for you
