Job description

About The Role

This role involves:

  • maintenance of a range of powered machines including hedge trimmers, strimmers, blowers and lawn mowers;
  • year-round maintenance of Arundel’s vehicles, including a works van, two compact tractors and a ride-on lawnmower;
  • ensuring that routine maintenance is carried out on these vehicles;
  • communicating with your manager on any necessary purchases for repairs/ or maintenance;
  • keeping up to date with WWT news

 

Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team. You'll get a warm welcome, including information on training, equipment and anything else you need. 

 

About You

This role will suit you if:

You have a can-do and enthusiastic attitude in completing tasks in all weathers, and are both a practical person and physically fit. Experience and knowledge in machinery and/or vehicle maintenance, ideally with qualifications, is essential, together with a competent, confident approach to maintenance and repair, being able to work independently and proactively. Much of your time will be spent working independently, but you will be happy to seek out help when needed. As nearly all our roles take place in public view, we need people committed to good customer service, engaging with visitors in our work, and positive and friendly communications with other staff and volunteers.

Please note that this role is currently only open to those aged 18+, and a driving licence is essential as there will sometimes be the need to use trust vehicles on site.

 

About Us

We’re WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whether they’re taking a new visitor under their wing, or conducting ground-breaking research further afield, our team are second to none. And there’s nothing we love more than watching them soar.

Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. So, the only question left is, what role will you play?
