The game and wildlife industry involves the maintenance and management of upland, lowland, woodland and wetland game and wildlife species. There is a Level 2 and Level 3 Apprenticeship, providing skills and knowledge to carry out the job role and support the future of the industry.
Jobs within the industry range from working on an estate as a gamekeeper (either ‘single handed’ or within a small team) to more specific roles including game farmer, deer stalker or pest controller.
Following successful completion of the Advanced Apprenticeship, apprentices can progress within game and wildlife in further/higher education or through other vocational courses.
