Description:
We have an exciting opportunity to join a well-established arboriculture consultancy business that is looking to expand their team. The role is intended for someone who is looking to 'come off the tools' and/or gain some consultancy experience, working closely with the principal consultant.
Based in the south east, covering all of England and Wales with the main areas of work being Bucks, Berks, Surrey, Oxon and London. The candidate would ideally have worked previously in an advisory capacity but some specific training may be possible for the right candidate. This role will develop into a position as Arboricultural Consultant for the right candidate.
The successful individual will be able to:
• Deliver clear arboricultural advice to clients both verbally and in writing.
• Show a good understanding of relevant tree law and planning legislation.
• Undertake accurate tree surveys to BS5837.
• Undertake detailed tree inspections assessing tree condition with the ability to make appropriate recommendations for tree work.
• Produce arboricultural reports to a high standard which provide clients with succinct and appropriate guidance.
• Be self-motivated with an attention to detail.
• Plan their own workload to maximise efficiency and be flexible to meet client needs.
• Manage a diverse and demanding workload.
• Liaise with clients, booking in surveys and answering customer queries as needed.
• Meet with clients, other professionals, local authorities and contractors in a professional manner.
• Demonstrate commercial awareness and the ability to develop positive client relationships.
Qualifications, experience and other requirements:
• Relevant professional qualification in arboriculture; this must be minimum level 4 but level 3 may be considered with appropriate experience.
• Current Professional Tree Inspection certificate.
• At least five years of professional arboricultural experience.
• CAD skills desirable but not essential.
• Full UK driving licence.
• Access to own vehicle and mobile phone.
• The role will be remote based with a requirement to meet with the principal consultant at appropriate intervals at the company headquarters in Buckinghamshire.
The role is anticipated to be a full time role but part time (minimum of 3 days per week) may also be considered. In a return a salary of £35 to £40k pa is offered depending on experience, as well as 28 days of paid leave plus bank holidays and access to the company pension scheme. Expenses will also be paid. This is a temporary role, which will become permanent after a probationary period
