About Burghley Estate

Burghley Estate is a diverse business centred in the town of Stamford, Lincolnshire.  At the heart of the Estate is Burghley House, set within 1,500 acres of historic Capability Brown parkland, with hundreds of heritage parkland trees. Our business interests are wide and varied including the House and Gardens visitor attractions and events, Burghley Park Golf Club, a significant property portfolio, including residential, agricultural and commercial properties.

Burghley owns around 1,000 acres of woodland, with extensive planting schemes underway, alongside long term woodland regeneration projects managed through a 10-year woodland management plan. Much of the Estate woodland falls under Countryside Stewardship and extensive on-going works are carried out annually to manage this scheme.

We are recruiting for a keen and hardworking Forester to join our Forestry Team.  This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working outdoors and is looking to build a career in forestry, with training and development available for the right candidate. The candidate must be an excellent team player and be prepared to get involved in many different aspects of Estate life, including working alongside other Estate teams where necessary.
