Vehicle and Machinery Maintenance Volunteer

This role involves:

• maintenance of a range of powered machines including hedge trimmers, strimmers, blowers and lawn mowers;
• year-round maintenance of Arundel’s vehicles, including a works van, two compact tractors and a ride-on lawnmower;
• ensuring that routine maintenance is carried out on these vehicles;
• communicating with your manager on any necessary purchases for repairs/ or maintenance;
• keeping up to date with WWT news

This role will suit you if:

You have a can-do and enthusiastic attitude in completing tasks in all weathers, and are both a practical person and physically fit. Experience and knowledge in machinery and/or vehicle maintenance, ideally with qualifications, is essential, together with a competent, confident approach to maintenance and repair, being able to work independently and proactively. Much of your time will be spent working independently, but you will be happy to seek out help when needed. As nearly all our roles take place in public view, we need people committed to good customer service, engaging with visitors in our work, and positive and friendly communications with other staff and volunteers.

Please note that this role is currently only open to those aged 18+, and a driving licence is essential as there will sometimes be the need to use trust vehicles on site.
