Tree Surveyor Job

Amesbury, Wiltshire

About the Role

Bawden Tree Care is looking for an experienced Arboricultural Surveyor to join our growing tree survey team.

Candidates for this tree surveyor job should be enthusiastic, professional, well organised and feel comfortable working in all weather conditions – even if it is a bit chilly!

The position is based at our Amesbury office, near Salisbury in South Wiltshire. The job will involve regularly travelling to different sites, from time to time there may be a need to stay away as Bawden Tree Care provide surveys across a wide geographic area.
