Wildlife jobs in United Kingdom

Forestry England are the biggest provider of outdoor recreation in the UK. We manage landscapes for wildlife to thrive, people to enjoy and as a source of sustainable wood.

Paid for parking applies at a number of our forests. The money raised from our car parks goes towards maintaining our visitor facilities including visitor centres, play areas, bike trails and other facilities.

Parking is an important service we provide to our visitors. Sitting within the national parking team, but working with colleagues across the organisation, the Parking Co-ordinator will provide administrative and project support to the National Parking Team in the delivery of day-to-day operating matters, as well as provide outstanding customer service to our visitors online and over the phone.

This is a permanent full-time role for 37 hours per week which will be worked across 5 days from Monday to Sunday each week. The nature of the work includes requirement for regular rota'd weekend, public and privilege holiday and evening working. To accommodate this, a rostered 7-day contract will be issued as standard. There is also an expectation that this role may be required to be on-call on a rota’d basis to act as a weekend and evening escalation contact.

The location of this post is within the Customer Relations Team based in the Innovation Centre, Thetford, Norfolk, with flexibility for some optional blended working. The post responsibilities cover the whole of England, and it is expected that the post holder will need to travel occasionally (including some overnight stays).

The role will involve a wide range of office management functions including administration, customer service, contractor liaison, and responsibility for ensuring that everything in this business unit runs smoothly and to deadlines.

Key work areas include:
