  • Respond to and investigate tree related accidents/incidents, undertaking a full investigation in liaison with the H&S team, responding to HSE enquiries
  • Manage and support the tree and biodiversity coordinator to ensure a planned programme of tree replacement; tree/hedge planting as funding allows
  • Work closely with TDC Councillors, other TDC departments, and Thanet residents to ensure an efficient tree management approach on all TDC land

Essential experience for the Tree Safety and Conservation Manager are:

  • Experience in managing the delivery of tree management operations through the in-house team and contractor
