passion and enthusiasm to take up an incredible opportunity to actively grow their career
within the forestry sector whilst contributing to the fight against climate change.
Tilhill is part of the BSW Group, the largest integrated forestry
business in the UK, and a member of binderholz, Europe’s leading
timber processing operation. These linkages bring with them unique
opportunities for graduates to experience all aspects of the forest
industry, from work experience in their commercial nursery and
the UK’s most advanced sawmills, to a comprehensive programme

related subjects such as land management or environmental
studies, will be ideally placed to join Tilhill’s three-year graduate
programme. Successful applicants are assigned to an office or
business stream where they learn every aspect of that area,
including shadowing highly experienced colleagues. With
opportunities across the UK, graduate trainees are offered
mentoring and pairing with an experienced manager during
their training period.
Harry Stevens, Tilhill’s Managing Director and Forestry Director of
the BSW Forestry Group said: “It is a most exciting time to join the
forest industry, with woodland creation playing an increasingly
important role in combatting climate change.
Tilhill’s years of experience in planting trees, and planning and
creating woodlands and forests, coupled with our woodland carbon
related business stream, CarbonStore, make Tilhill a cutting-edge
company. Every aspect of our work provides nature-based solutions.
