Urban Green Newcastle is a pioneering charity set up in 2019 to look after the city’s 33 parks
and over 60 allotment sites. Our vision is for more people to enjoy and benefit from the
beautiful open spaces in the city, and to ensure they are safe, welcoming and provide a great
environment for wildlife and people which is valued by all.

We are looking for an experienced Estate Manager to join our Ranger Team. As one of two Estate
Managers you will be responsible for managing half of the parks estate – focusing particularly
on the central and recreational parks. You will thrive on establishing high presentation and
conservation standards and finding creative ways to enhance biodiversity and visitor
satisfaction within Newcastle’s parks. As well as managing a small team of Rangers/Community
Gardeners you will take estate-wide responsibility for compliance and training standards, and
for oversight of play areas.

We are looking for an experienced landscape/parks manager with an ability to inspire staff and
volunteers, manage projects and create great spaces for people and nature.
