Betwsycoed, United Kingdom National Trust Full time

Ysbyty Ifan is one of our largest agricultural estates. It comprises approximately 20,316 acres of stunning uplands, all within the boundaries of Snowdonia National Park, and includes the Machno, Eidda and Upper Conwy Valley valleys. The Ysbyty Ifan estate came into our care after being transferred by the Treasury in 1951, which had obtained it in lieu of paying death tolls from the estates of the late Lord Penrhyn. The estate consists of 51 farms and 30 houses. Breeding sheep and beef cattle is mainly the form of farming, and the livestock do well on the uplands and open moors.

Due to the close nature of the Welsh society that exists on the estate **the means to communicate in Welsh as well as in English will be essential to the job.**

Permanent, full time position.

Ysbyty Ifan yw un o’n hystadau amaethyddol mwyaf. Mae’n cynnwys tua 20,316 erw o ucheldir godidog, sydd i gyd o fewn ffiniau Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri, ac mae’n cynnwys dyffrynnoedd Machno, Eidda a rhan Uchaf Dyffryn Conwy. Y daeth ystâd Ysbyty Ifan i’n gofal ni ar ôl cael ei throsglwyddo gan y Trysorlys yn 1951, a oedd wedi ei chael yn lle talu tollau marwolaeth o ystadau'r diweddar Arglwydd Penrhyn. Mae’r ystâd yn cynnwys 51 o ffermydd a 30 o dai. Magu defaid a gwartheg bîff yw’r math o ffermio sydd yma’n bennaf, ac mae’r da byw yn gwneud yn dda ar yr ucheldir a’r rhosydd agored.

What it's like to work here:The Yspyty estate is of great importance for the conservation of nature, home to several of our rarest wild birds and there are several areas throughout the estate under SSSI protection. Migneint and surrounding areas is one of the last strongholds for some of the British upland species like the Curlew and the Mountain Beetle.

And lower down the valleys the Conwy, Eidda and the Machno the land in our care is a network of small family farms and woods. The landscape is under the management of the National Trust to be protected from the worst of the largest industrial agricultural developments. To create opportunities for nature to be prosperous and as well as opportunities for agriculturalists to farm in a traditional manner and close to nature. 

Y mae'r ystâd Ysbyty o bwysig rwyf mawr er mwyn gwarchod natur, yn gartref i nifer o’n hadar a bywyd gwyllt mwyaf prin ac y mae nifer o ardaloedd ar led yr ystâd o dan warchodaeth SSSI. Y mae'r Migneint a’r ardaloedd cyfagos yn un o’r cadarnleoedd olaf i rai o rywogaethau'r ucheldir Prydain e.eg. y Gylfinir a Chwilgorn y mynydd.

Ac yn is i lawr y dyffrynnoedd y Conwy, Eidda ac y Machno mae'r tir yn ein gofal yn rhwydwaith o ffermydd bychan teuluol a choedlannau. O dan reolaeth yr Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol y mae'r dirwedd wedi i’w warchod o’r gwaethaf o’r datblygiadau amaethyddol diwydiannol mwyaf. I greu cyfleoedd i natur fod yn llewyrchus ac yn ogystal â chyfleoedd i amaethyddwyr ffermio mewn modd traddodiadol ac yn agos at natur.

What you'll be doing:As a custodian working for the National Trust, it will be part of your job to conserve and expand biodiversity on our estate. Either through our work to increase the number of trees and woods on the estate or through our work to improve and progress our wildflower meadows. You will have every opportunity to work close to nature.

Fel ceidwad yn gweithio i'r Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol y bydd yn rhan o’ch swydd i warchod ac ehangu bioamrywiaeth ar ein stad. Unai drwy ein gwaith i gynnydd y nifer o goed a choedlannau ar ystâd neu ella wrth ein gwaith i wella a chynnydd ein hardaloedd o ddolydd blodau gwyllt. Bydd pob cyfle i chi weithio yn agos at natur.

Y bydd rhaid i'r ymgeisydd fod gyda'r modd i weithio yn dda ar ben ei hun, fel rhan o’r tîm, a gyda gwirfoddolwyr ac eraill o du allan y meddiant. Gyda nifer o brojectau a phartneriaethau cyffrous ar y gweill, a’r lled yr ystâd. Fel projectau Uwch Conwy lle mae ein swyddogion a’i phartneriaid wedi bod gweithio caled i leihau llifogydd ar hud yr afon Conwy.
