Climbing Arborist/Groundsman

We are seeking an experienced climbing arborist or groundsman to join our established team based near Harrogate, North Yorkshire. 

We are a well-established company who have been running for almost a decade in the North Yorkshire area, and provide a very high quality of service to our clients and care deeply about the environment. Our work is mainly domestic in and around the Harrogate area, but can include commercial projects and sometimes involves travel to other areas of the UK.

The occasional overnight stay will be required with all travel costs paid for. There may be the occasional requirement for emergency call-outs outside of normal working hours, which will be paid as overtime. 

Due to expansion, we require an experienced arborist who is confident with all aspects of arboriculture to work as a lead climber/secondary climber, and who is confident in speaking with clients and working at a professional level. We would also consider an experienced groundsman keen to advance their career. A positive attitude and strong work ethic are essential, as is the ability to fit into the team.

Skills and abilities:

• Minimum of two years experience.

• Own driving license and own vehicle. 

• Trailer license preferable. 

• Full chainsaw license. 

• Tickets preferred: CS38 and CS39.

• First Aid qualifications would be preferable. 

• Hedge cutting experience would be beneficial. 

The role will be self-employed initially, with the option for PAYE for the right person. Salary is dependent on experience. Hours will be approximately 30 per week with occasional overtime, but part-time hours will be considered.  

Further training can be delivered to help with professional career development if required.
