  Throughout my time working for EGGER I have been involved in active harvesting site management; conducting contract and contractor management, risk assessments, risk control and roadside stock checks. I have also been involved in a number of replanting and woodland creation projects working closely with other forest managers, contractors and planting teams.

Miserden Estate

• Miserden

• Assistant Forester

  • Jul 2016 - Sep 2016

  Whilst working at the estate I became proficient felling, processing and moving timber utilising forest machinery. The majority of the felling carried out on the estate was selective thinning for woodland improvement therefore I became capable identifying ideal specimen trees and felling with that in mind. The timber was then stacked at roadside using winch equipment, subsequently it was collected with a timber trailer and transferred to timber stacks for storage.

  • May 2013 - Aug 2013

  Throughout my time on Williambury station I became adept at working unsupervised for long periods of time. The jobs that I was carrying out while working on Williambury were all farm maintenance jobs such as rolling wire, fixing basic mechanical issues with vehicles, driving the loader to deliver feed to stock, erecting fences and mustering cattle. I feel that I gained great insight into the use of machinery while carrying out tasks such as erecting fences. I also became skilled at driving vehicles with trailers during my time here. Show less
