SGL Forestry is currently looking for motivated people to join our small team.

We are a professional tree and grounds maintenance company working for major companies, such as SSE, Coombes, Land and water, and others, maintaining railway lines, electricity pylons, waterways, and more. SGL Forestry also cater for the domestic market.

We pride ourselves on offering an efficient and excellent service to our customers, and we are looking for people who want to help us deliver this vital service.

Successful applicants will be able to arrive at the yard in good time to travel to whichever job they are assigned. They will be able to follow instructions in their work packs but also be able to think for themselves and solve problems. They must be a competent team player and be prepared to take on extra training as and when required.

Although training can be arranged, it would be a huge advantage if candidates had some of the following: Qualifications in cross-cutting and maintenance, tree climbing, using a chainsaw from a rope and harness, aerial rescue, Railway safety (PTS & COSS) , workplace first aid and Forestry and a full clean driving license with own transport would all be very desirable.

“ Depending on qualifications, age and experience, applicants can expect to earn between £80 and £135 per day. You will get 28 days paid holiday per year and opportunities for overtime at night and at the weekends, if you’re keen.”

Please see our Web site “SGL Forestry”, based in Trotton on the border between West Sussex and Hampshire, for further insight into what we do.

I do hope to hear from you soon.
