The Government has set out plans to revive agroforestry, encouraging farmers and landowners to contribute towards climatological and environmental goals, whilst increasing woodland/tree cover, and increasing productivity from farmland. This is especially important at the time of acute geopolitical crisis and global economic trends, with food security climbing the agenda. The Forestry Commission are seeking a dynamic individual with experience in forestry/farming and/or land management who is quick to learn and can inspire and enthuse others. The Agroforestry Woodland Officer role can be seen as the ‘face’ of the Forestry Commission to landowners, managers and stakeholders interested in exploring agroforestry. As Forestry Commission Area Agroforestry Woodland Officer, you will also proactively advise and support Area based staff on agroforestry, providing expert advice on agroforestry development, implementation, regulation, and environmental benefits, with a particular focus on supporting local forest and farming industries.
