Job Type: Permanent, Full Time

Salary: £27534 - £30866/annum

Starting £27,534 and up to £30,866

Come and be part of an enthusiastic and motivated One Team in helping to protect our significant number of protected trees across South Norfolk and Broadland.

Our Districts have a varied geography and a substantial number of protected trees, and in this role, you will take a supportive role in all tree related matters. This will include assessing trees for protection, processing applications and appeals, and providing related specialist advice and guidance to planning officers, enforcement teams, the public, and Councillors.

We have an ambitious growth and development agenda and take pride in protecting our environment whilst also promoting sustainable housing for the future. We are therefore looking for someone that can work closely with the Development Management team to help ensure that important trees are suitably protected and accommodated within developments.

About You

You will need to have experience within a tree and conservation role, ideally with an LPA. You should be able to work on your own initiative, be a strong team player and demonstrate passion and commitment to protecting trees, landscapes and the environment.

You should have a professional qualification in Tree/Landscape Management from a recognised body or national diploma in forestry or arboriculture or equivalent level 3 qualification in arboriculture. Consideration will be given to funding study for candidates with suitable experience but without the relevant qualifications.
