Gamekeeping can be a very rewarding career but it is no secret that it is hard work.
There are different ways of getting into the industry and hopefully the information on this page will help you decide which would be the best way to go about starting your new career no matter what age you are.
Whether you are looking to move jobs within the industry or are just starting out, we can help by giving advice on where to look and how to go about finding work. We also hold a gamekeepers’ register and can add your details to this if you wish. For more information and to request a form please contact the team.
If you have any other questions or would like further information on any aspect of gamekeeping please contact BASC’s dedicated gamekeeping team on 01244 573019 or email.
