Salaried seasonal role | April - September | UK-wide travel

We're recruiting Seasonal Site Operatives to join our site teams working on the build and take down of major agricultural and flagship equestrian events across the UK.

This role is well suited to people used to seasonal, practical outdoor work, particularly those from an agricultural background.

The work is hands-on, physical, and team-based, with regular travel and overnight stays during the working week, and occasional weekends.

The work:

  • Assisting with the build and take down of temporary stabling and large temporary event structures.

  • Handling materials, loading and unloading equipment.

  • Working as part of a site crew under an experienced Site Manager.

  • Following clear health and safety procedures on live sites.

  • Working to fixed event dates, ensuring builds are completed on time.

You'll be working behind the scenes on the build and take down for leading agricultural shows and flagship equestrian events, including Farmfest and The Game Fair, alongside well-known events such as Royal Windsor Horse Show and Burghley Horse Trials.

What we're looking for:

  • Practical, reliable people comfortable with physical outdoor work.

  • Able to travel UK-wide and stay away during the working week.

  • A strong team ethic and ability to follow instructions and work safely.

  • Experience in agriculture, events, construction or similar roles is helpful, but full training is provided.

What's on offer:

  • Guaranteed pay: £29,500 basic (pro rata, salaried - not zero hours).

  • Accommodation paid when working away.

  • £20 per night lodging allowance.

  • Travel assistance within the Nottingham area for collection and drop-offs.

  • A full season of varied, hands-on work.

  • Opportunity to return season after season, with scope to progress into longer-term roles for those who show commitment.

Full training is provided, with further development opportunities available over time.
