Looking for work suited to this experience, for instance in a Species Officer-type role.

I would like to use my teaching skills to education children, young people and adults about conservation and wildlife generally.

I would also relish an opportunity to develop my own skills further.

Alongside this, I have become a specialist in organising, establishing and delivering a varied remit of educational and entertainment activities as well as consumer outlets. I am experienced in fund (grant) raising, budgeting and retail & personnel management, as well as up to date with current Trading Standards, Environmental Health and Health and Safety requirements.

I understand the cross curricular needs of the education system, and the mechanisms of tempting teachers out of the classroom and into outdoor education. I can teach and work with all age ranges and am confident in all public forums.

I have supported this fieldwork and research by working with a range of scientific companies in the Oxfordshire area obtaining a vast amount of laboratory skills and knowledge.

I am a very adaptable individual who enjoys working within a team as well delivering as an individual. I have always been driven to pursue a career which makes a difference by actively protecting and conserving the environment.

I have been employed as a countryside ranger in seasonal posts since 2003.

The work has taken me from the South coast of England to Scotland and I have enjoyed every posting and made a number of good friends.

Up to 1996 (when I attended the Scottish Agricultural College followed by Edinburgh University) I was variously employed in the rural sector, both in farming and by a local corporate entertainment company.

My strengths are in practical management activities but enjoy the variety that comes with educational and special interest groups.

I have a good general knowledge of and interest in flora and fauna with plants and trees being my strongest areas. I also have a developing interest in grasses, invertebrates and marine life.

I have the usual package of additional skills required of a ranger such as IT competence, first aid training, friendly manner, etc.

Essential team player and who has managed ranger teams on a day to day basis.

Worked in small teams to survey complex environmental habitats.

I aim to develop my career within the countryside management sector and to become involved in a variety of specialised areas including habitat management, conservation and surveying, liasing with community groups and to promote an appreciation of our natural spaces.

I have been involved with targeted survey programmes including bat and newt (temporary GCN licence held), river monitoring, orchard protection surveys and currently appointed as a volunteer Tree Warden within my local Parish. I have experience of wardening/ranger with the National Trust and surveying with local county wildlife groups.

An important element of my career development has involved acquring the neccessary practical experience to fully enhance the given role. I am skilled in a wide range of hand and powered tools as well as traditional based skills such as hedgelaying, drystone walling and horticultural management.

Please read my attached C.V for additional information regarding skills, work experience and qualifications gained.

I last year shadowed both forestry commission and rural payments and inspections staff during the summer. This gave me a great opportunity to work in a countryside environment and also helped me with many apsects of my degree.

My reason for coming to Sparsholt in the beginning was to get the required certification and experience to work within the wildlife and conservation sector. Since starting the course my experience has trebled, my aim was to try and get a good grounding in a mixture of skills and positions within the industry. I am now looking for that perfect placement which I hope will enhance the skills I have learned, and also teach me some much needed new skills in which to start a career.

Unfortunately, due to a flair-up of tendonitis in my wrists whilst chainsawing last year, a hand specialist recommended that I should avoid exposing myself to excessive periods of heavy manual work. Therefore my previous employer decided that I was no longer able to carry out my full range of duties and gave me a capability payment in December 2009.

Therefore, I am now looking for work with less emphasis on practical habitat management. Taking my experience and transferable skills into account, I consider myself suitable for fields of work such as environmental education, people engagement, ecology, Rights of Way, or training. However, I am quite flexible and am interested in all aspects of countryside management, conservation and environmental work.

I am looking for an opportunity for work based training that will lead to a change of career for me into Environmental Conservation Management.

As well as the course below I also do volunteer work for British Trust for Conservation Volunteers (BTCV) and I also work as part of the South Downs Volunteer Ranger Service.

I am currently doing a Plumpton College/BTCV Environmental Conservation NVQ Level 2 with Chainsaw Training Course two-days a week.

I am extremely hard working and eager to learn new skills and would be delighted to hear from any organisation that is willing to give me this opportunity in any of the areas listed in the chosen career section.

I look forward to hearing from you.

- Communicating scientific idea to people with non-scientific backgrounds

- Team work within a dedicated group

- Advising policy on ecological issues e.g. designation of SACs or MPAs

- Conservation of important habitats and/ or species

Having worked in management positions in various business sectors, I now wish to have a change in career, with a focus on using my skills for the good of the environment or charity, and not merely for profit orientated business.

I have attached herewith my CV for your perusal, and should you require any futher information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
