Full job description

Join us where the River Thet winds through tranquil woodland at Thorpe Forest

Location: Thorpe Forest (Norfolk)
Salary: £12.71 per hour
Working Hours: Part-time, 10 hours.
Days of Work: 2 days per week working every other weekend.
Transport: Please note that our location is not accessible by public transport. Therefore, a valid driving licence and access to a car, or another reliable means of transport, are essential for this role.

We have an exciting opportunity for a Forest Ranger to join our team at Thorpe Forest.

Be a part of making special escapes in one of the UK’s most peaceful forest locations, developing your skills while ensuring our cabins are beautifully prepared for every guest. Our cabins offer a natural escape beside the banks of the River Thet, close to where the Norfolk and Suffolk borders meet. Choose a cabin beneath the tranquil canopy of the forest or opt for a more open aspect in the picturesque woodland glade.

About the Forest Ranger Role:
Our Forest Rangers are the heart and soul of the woodland experience. They don’t just work in nature - they interpret it, protect it, and share its wonder with every guest who walks beneath the trees. From uncovering hidden wildlife to sparking curiosity in young explorers, our Rangers transform a simple forest stay into something truly unforgettable.

Open all year round, as our Forest Ranger you will work within the Forest Retreat team and report to the Forest Retreat Manager. Your aim is to inspire our guests to experience, enjoy and respect our British forests by championing our ethical and ecological values, ensuring every guest experiences that special Forest Feeling from the moment they arrive.

You will deliver exceptional customer service in line with our brand standards, helping guests deepen their connection with nature during their stay.

Forest Ranger Responsibilities:

➡️ Deliver a varied programme of guided and self-led events for children, adults and families, inspired by the forest environment.
➡️ Create safe, enjoyable routes for activities and continually monitor them for any issues.
➡️ Build and maintain strong relationships with local partners including Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales, Woodland Trust, National Park Authorities, and local businesses, charities and trusts.
➡️ Develop team knowledge and promote environmental awareness across the location.
➡️ Encourage safe enjoyment of wildlife and habitats (e.g., dogs on leads, protecting ground-nesting birds, respecting fungi and plant life).
➡️ Carry out minor pruning and vegetation control, liaising with the Operations Manager to ensure seasonal grounds maintenance supports local flora and fauna.
➡️ Confidently lead groups and deliver engaging talks that inspire guests of all ages.

What Makes Working as a Forest Ranger Here Special?
Here’s what one of our Forest Rangers says about working with Forest Holidays:

"Working at Forest Holidays is special for me as I have the opportunity to share the beauty of the woodland with guests every day. Helping people connect with nature, discover wildlife, and see the forest in a new way is incredibly rewarding, and being part of a team that truly values the environment makes it even better."

What Are We Looking For?
We’re looking for a dynamic individual who works with energy and enthusiasm to deliver exceptional brand standards, making sure every guest experiences that Forest Feeling. You’ll be comfortable managing your own schedule, working independently outdoors in all seasons, and building positive working relationships with colleagues and partners.

We’re looking for someone with:

✅ A relevant qualification in an environmentally-based subject
✅ Walking Leader or professional outdoor leadership qualification
✅ Experience of public speaking and leading groups
✅ Outdoor First Aid certificate and PVG certificate
✅ A full UK driving licence (desirable due to location)
✅ A genuine passion for woodland conservation and guest engagement

Who Are Forest Holidays?

We’re a team of 800 people, caring for UK forests and creating unique stays in nature where guests can truly switch off and reconnect. If you’re looking for a career where you can make a real difference, and be part of something meaningful, you've found the right place ✨
