Location: Isle of Mull
Salary: negotiable
Vacancy type: Temporary
Sectors: General
Placed by: KILFINICHEN FARMS
A fixed term opportunity (initially until end Oct 2017) has arisen for a couple to take on boatman, general maintenance and housekeeping roles working alongside our resident couple at the spectacular Kilfinichen Estate on Isle of Mull.

The estate has a busy holiday let operation (with changeovers generally at weekends) which needs to be managed throughout the year and providing a warm welcome for clients along with hands on maintenance of property and equipment is essential. In addition, there are always development and build projects taking place which you will be required to assist with at times.

The principal house is a family home and the role encompasses all aspects of housekeeping with occasional catering assistance and generally looking after the family and friends when they are there, along with gardening and grounds work.

The estate is situated beside the sea with its own boathouse, slipway and pier and importantly, the successful applicant will ideally be an experienced inshore power boat skipper (RYA cert or equivalent) and a proficient mechanical engineer with the ability to carry out basic boat maintenance on steel, wooden and fibreglass vessels. Tractor / plant operator (for maintenance of estate forest tracks) and chainsaw certs are an advantage, while experience of agricultural spray applications will be beneficial.

In addition to farming and forestry, deer management is actively undertaken on the Estate and the months of September and October can be particularly busy with this. During the deer stalking season work may also include driving (and maintaining) the estate’s Argocats and also larder work and carcass preparation.

Self-contained accommodation is provided in this fantastic location. Both of you will need to be drivers and due to the varied nature of the position, flexibility and adaptability is key. Salary is negotiable depending on experience and skills.

If you would be interested in this position then please forward your CV’s/Letter/Contact details to: Loretta Thompson – [email protected]
