Leaving the army

[John parker]

Hello everyone,, am doing my combination course at kts in two weeks and would love to find out anything I can about job prospects when finishing. I have been offered a job in utilities doing line clearance but want to know if this is good experience in the long run?

Hi, are you working the lines as a climber? line clearance will get you a lot of climbing to get to grips with work positioning but it's not refined tree work it's very trigger happy from my experience. Some people love it and some people do it for a while and then move into back garden tree work. If your in Surrey I'm looking for a groundsman to come on board and move up the ranks to become a climber. Or even if you would like a few days experience of tree work that's not line clearance we are based in Godalming?

That sounds really good, really interested. Have you an email address and we can chat?
