This is a hands-on role at the heart of our wetland centre, helping to keep WWT Llanelli safe, welcoming, and inspiring for visitors, staff, and wildlife. You’ll lead on the day-to-day maintenance of our buildings, habitats, and outdoor spaces – from hides and pathways to play areas and nature reserves – making sure everything is well cared for and ready to enjoy.
You’ll supervise volunteers and contractors, work closely with our conservation and living collections teams, and use a wide range of tools and machinery to deliver practical site improvements. No two days are the same, and your work will directly support wildlife, visitor experiences, and the long-term health of our wetlands.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys outdoor, practical work and wants to make a real difference. In return, you’ll be part of a passionate team, develop valuable conservation and facilities skills, and play a key role in helping WWT restore wetlands and unlock their power for people and nature.
