Job vacancy application procedure
Job Vacancy Application Procedure
If you are interested in applying for a vacant role at the Wildwood Trust, please submit your application through our online system, Employment Hero.
You should pay careful attention to the requirements of the role outlined in the job description in your application, and any gaps in employment should be explained.
Appointments are conditional upon the receipt of at least two satisfactory references. However, references will only be taken up upon offer of contract. You do not need to provide this information during the application stage, and we will always seek your consent prior to approaching referees.
Applications will not normally be acknowledged. If you have not received a response within four weeks of the job vacancy closing date, we regret your application has not been successful on this occasion.
Queries can be directed to [email protected].
Interview & Selection Procedure
Interviews and selection tests will be held by arrangement at Wildwood, Wealden Forest Park, Herne Common (Kent jobs), or Wildwood, Escot Estate, Ottery St Mary (Devon jobs), or via an online platform if appropriate.
The selection process will depend on the seniority of the role, but may include interviews, presentations, selection tests, informal discussion, and tours.
Appointments are subject to confirmation after a six-month probation period, followed by regular development reviews.
