Job Description
Location: Woolbeding
Contract Type: Full Time/ Permanent
Reference: IRC178498
Closing Date: 2nd August 2026
Salary: £27,612
As a Ranger, you’re a champion of nature conservation and the great outdoors, and you’ll play a crucial role in keeping the nation’s beloved countryside and coast in good shape, for wildlife and for people.
You should be willing to work some weekends, bank holidays, and evenings, and be on call.
What it's like to work here
Working as part of a team that delivers high standards for nature conservation both at our places and across the wider landscape where we are involved in a number of species recovery and reintroduction projects including species such as beavers, water voles, silver studded blue butterflies and many more besides.
What you'll be doing
You’ll be helping to protect and care for habitats, wildlife, buildings and machinery. You’ll pass on your knowledge and enthusiasm to encourage others to love this area as much as you do. Whenever and wherever you come across people, you’ll take the time to talk to them and answer their questions, rather than rushing away to the next task.
You’ll make sure that the conservation work and outdoor experiences on the land in your care are of the highest standard. You’ll build relationships in the local community, proudly representing the Trust and letting people know about the work you and the team are doing.
Who we're looking for
We’d love to hear from you if you’re:
- practically experienced in conservation work, to protect and improve habitats and landscapes
- happy to talk to all kinds of people about the work you’re doing, and why it matters
- hard-working and willing to learn
- able to work safely, using risk assessments and following guidelines
- experienced in managing land, access and conservation, and working outdoors
- able to use machinery and equipment, with relevant certificates
- a driver with a full UK driving licence
