Habitat Management - Young Adult Ranger Work Experience at Ham Common logo

Are you 16 to 25 years old and looking for work experience in an environmental role, something to add to your CV, or a career change to a green job?

The Parks Foundation are delivering free sessions for young adults, teaching green skills in parks across Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole, no prior experience needed. With varied sessions available, develop a range of skills at our different events.

Join the Poole based Rangers in a cut and burn task. This will be controlling various plant species by cutting back and burning various vegetation in order to create a more favourable habitat for our native wildlife. Meet professionals and volunteers from this organisation and take the opportunity to find out more about job roles within this local organisation. No prior knowledge is required.

Please dress appropriately for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.
