You will lead on and be responsible for estate and all machinery maintenance. We'd like you to keep our machinery and vehicles safe and in good working order and to carry out safety checks on our reserves. Each season will bring a new set of tasks and challenges, and you will be working in beautiful surroundings across various reserves.
