We are looking for a Ranger to manage one of the most beautiful countryside portfolios in the National Trust – the West Lakes, Cumbria, more specifically Wasdale and Ennerdale.

Salary: £23,868pa

Contract: Fixed until 30 June 2026

Interviews: 13th June

Excitingly we are developing our Ranger team here in the Western Valleys and currently have another Ranger position available on a Permanent Contract, please see: IRC152356. If you would like to be considered for both roles, please do apply for both.

Working as Ranger for the West Lakes you will be responsible for the maintenance and conservation management of a large area within the portfolio. Working in some of the nation’s most stunning places and spaces, come rain or shine, your love of the outdoors will inspire others as you strive to ensure the land in our care is managed in a way which is sustainable, balancing conservation, farming and public access.

As Ranger for Wasdale and Ennerdale within the West Lakes you will be responsible for the protection and care of habitats, wildlife, property and machinery, and your passion will inspire others to love this beautiful place as much as you do. Tasks will include dry stone walling, fencing, tree planting, hedge laying, footpath maintenance as well as contributing towards our monitoring program.

We want you to form lasting relationships with our tenant farmers, partners, colleagues and visitors. We want you to engage with visitors, making time to talk to them, not rushing away to the next task. As an easily identifiable member of the Ranger team, on your best day you will be creating lasting memories for everyone, firing the imagination that makes a visitor become a supporter for life.

We’d love to hear from you if you’re:

- practically experienced in conservation work, to protect and improve habitats and landscapes
- happy to talk to all kinds of people about the work you’re doing, and why it matters
- hard-working and willing to learn
- able to work safely, using risk assessments and following guidelines
- experienced in managing land, access and conservation, and working outdoors
- able to use machinery and equipment, with relevant certificates
- a driver with a full UK driving licence
