RSP Member - Countryside Jobs Service

For many, available work in rural communities is outdoor based.

If you're looking to begin your career in countryside management, landscape conservation, wildlife or ecology then Countryside Jobs Service is a great place to start.

We advertise vacancies, both paid and voluntary, across the sectors. The website is a fund of useful information including current news (updated daily), details of professional events and training along with a library of articles covering different aspects of working in the sector.  There's a daily email service which drops details of all these into your inbox.

For those businesses looking to recruit, CJS can help. We have a tailor made audience of rural dwellers and, countryside workers and managers who are also very aware of the problems faced by rural and/or remote locations and can bring a depth of knowledge and skills to help Rural Regeneration projects to succeed.

CJS has many unique qualities but the one we’re most proud of is our Service, in over thirty years we’ve never missed a deadline and incredibly we mostly work for free, in 2025 93% of everything we did and produced was without charge, following social enterprise aims has always been fundamental to the way CJS works.
