Part of Hertfordshire’s Services for Young People, the Centre is highly regarded for its standards of excellence and professionalism in delivering high quality outdoor learning experiences.

Applicants should understand how outdoor education can be used to develop children’s and young people’s personal and social skills and believe in the value of outdoor learning.
Skill/experience in any of the land-based activities offered by the centre will be an advantage: - archery, bushcraft, climbing, low ropes, mountain-biking, problem-solving and team-building activities, orienteering or navigation, along with an interest or experience in teaching or leading natural history and environmental activities.
Successful applicants will spend most of their time delivering outcome-based sessions to visiting groups but will also be expected to assist in maintaining equipment and developing resources with other staff to support the delivery of the activities on offer.
