Protecting parks and people. Become a Ranger! 

 

Rutland Water has been supplying clean water to the local area for over 50 years. But did you know it’s also a fantastic family day out?  

 

Whether it’s a slow stroll in nature, fishing from the boats, cycling across our 23-mile cycling track, or visiting our Cafe for a cuppa, there’s something for everyone at Rutland.  

 

What will you be doing?    

 

Come and join the team and help us to maintain and enhance Rutland Water. 

We are looking for friendly, customer focused people to join the team, where you will be maintaining our cycling and walking paths and keeping our car parks tidy to ensure visitors have a safe and enjoyable visit.  

You will also be carrying out land and woodland management, organising and delivering fishing events and working closely with the Estate manager to always ensure visitor safety.  

You'll assist in the management of the fishery by maintaining appropriate level and quality of stock, reporting variances to the Estate manager, report weekly on catch data and ensure compliance with relevant permit and hire bylaws. You will have the opportunity to develop commercial fishing events and promote the fishery and wider water park via our social media channels.
