PTS Saw Operative - North Scotland

[Highland Forestry]

Hi Guys,

 

We're looking for a PTS Chainsaw Operative for an upcoming project starting at the end of January.

 

Whilst we are looking for some extra help specifically for this job, ongoing work may be available both on and off track.

 

Ideally you should have NPTC CS 30, NPTC CS 31, a valid PTS qualification and a valid First Aid ticket.

 

An operative with climbing tickets may also be considered.

 

Please email utilities@highlandforestry.co.uk with contact details and a brief summery of experience on and off Network Rail infrastructure.

 

Cheers

 

Matt

Hi matt how do you go about getting the pts cert do you have to be sponsored onto the course?

[Highland Forestry]

Hi Guss,

 

Yes you need to be sponsored onto the course initially, or have a sponsor willing to put you through it.

 

It comprises a medical, a drugs and alcohol test and then a two day training course.

Thanks for the quick reply I'm sure the medical would be fine and the drink/drugs test would be clear. Il speak to my brother as he works for net work rail planing the works down south and see if he knows how or if he can get me a sponsor. All the best Craig

Let me know how that goes Craig,

 

If necessary I could organise a sponsor for you, but we haven't got any courses coming up in the next wee while.

 

I'll certainly let you know if that changes though..
