What a fantastic opportunity, when I saw this the other day I was tempted for sure.

 

If I was single or had a more flexible arrangement then I'd be bitting your hand off for the chance.

 

Really hope you get the calibre and numbers of Applicants this merits Andy.

 

 

Again, great opportunity guys & Girls

 

 

 

 

Can you match 46 A/L + B/H, study trips abroad, seminars, decent training & equipment budget?

 

If so I might give it a second thought

 

Not that you'd want a climbing hasbeen that geeks about and wastes his life away in cyber treeworld all day

Looks very good, again I think it would be a bit too far to travel up from North Devon!!

Great website by the way Andrew.

Always worth sending a CV through anyway because we are looking at some progressive expansion over the next year or so, which will involve the creation of satellite offices around the country to enable use to reduce mileage rates.

 

This will mean using consulting arborists working from home. We are currently servicing contracts in Birmingham, Lincolnshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Suffolk, Wiltshire, Shropshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Devon and Wales.

 

Our main push for contract development is looking at complete tree assessment using a combination of thermal imaging and root investigation. We also manage arboricultural issues on constructions sites and supervise specialist tree work operations including contracts with sensitive ecological issues.

 

The current position we are looking to fill is to cover a six month period, because my brother is taking some time off to go travelling. However, we are fully expecting the contract to be renewed provided the short term arrangement works out mutually beneficial.

 

Looking forward to hearing form you…….

 

Regards, Andrew

Thanks for the support David, and it would be really great to have you on board as well, but I am also fully aware that the CofL offer you a very good package when it comes to work experience and CPD.

 

Our contracts working for the CofL are increasing as we are currently undertaking some risk assessment surveys for Epping Forest, which we will be following up with thermal imaging. It will be interesting to see how this can then be used to better inform the management strategy for the ancient beech pollards and oak trees growing in association with high target areas.

 

Epping have a number of challenges with the responsibility of looking after such a unique population of trees, especially when it comes to management their retention as viable veteran pollards.
