Climbing Arborist / Trainee Utility Arborist – East Midlands

Belvoir Tree Care are looking for a climber to join a small growing business based near Melton Mowbray, working across the East Midlands.

Work is a mix of utility vegetation management (National Grid), domestic tree work and larger removals, so it’s quite varied rather than just one type of job.

You’ll be working directly alongside me to start with, with the opportunity to progress into utility arboriculture. I’ll cover the cost of UA tickets, D476 and other relevant training following a successful probation period.

A lot of the work is in rural locations and private land that you wouldn’t normally get access to, and there are also opportunities for shutdown work and emergency call-outs.

Looking for someone who can already climb and wants to progress, not just a ground worker.

---

Pay

£25k – £40k depending on experience, with increases as qualifications are gained.

---

Requirements

• CS30 / CS31
• CS38 (must be able to climb and carry out aerial rescue)
• Full UK driving licence

Ideally CS39, but not essential.

---

What I’m looking for

Someone reliable, motivated and willing to learn.

You’ll need to work to a high standard in terms of safety and compliance, be comfortable using a phone/tablet for work records, and be able to deal with landowners and clients professionally.

This isn’t just a basic labouring role — looking for someone who wants to build a career and progress.

If interested, drop me a message with your experience and tickets.
