Show People What Restoration Looks Like
Full time
Scotland
Most people have never stood in a landscape that is being actively restored at scale. Our Scottish estates are vast, wild and beautiful, with native woodland returning, peatland recovering and wildlife arriving back year on year. The people lucky enough to experience our Estates, will leave feeling a strong connection with nature and expand their thinking to new possibilities.
People make the place, and as our Ecotourism Intern, you’ll help welcome more guests to our Scottish estates and distil a dram of OC magic into everything they experience whilst here. Guests leave us feeling more connected; with nature, each other, and the speed, scale and precision with which we operate. From introducing landscape scale restoration, to the small but incredibly important details that make a stay truly amazing, you can help shape everything.
You will work with our Scottish estate teams and with Oxygen Escapes. Because you will be the person who greets guests, guides them across the estate and sends them home inspired, you will be the one they remember.
Closing date: 02/11/2026
About You

- Able to explain environmental restoration on our estates in a way that lands with someone who has never thought about it before.
- A passion for providing unforgettable experiences and pursuing the highest standards.

- Brilliantly organised across a genuinely broad remit, from bookings and logistics to the hundred small touches that turn a stay into an experience.
Adventure

- Flexible about hours, because you want to be there the moment guests arrive and their adventure begins.
- A driving licence is a real advantage given the locations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Together
- Warm, confident and genuinely good with people from a wide range of backgrounds.
- Works well with estate teams, local suppliers and the surrounding community.
- And let’s be honest, you have to be really kind too. Sharing snacks on long journeys or a packed lunch in the driving rain is mandatory!
We believe in recruiting exceptional people and creating opportunities that allow you to do incredible things. You don’t need to tick every box above, and you don’t need to look or sound a certain way to belong here. We are committed to building a genuinely diverse team drawn from across the country, with a wide range of lived and learnt experiences. It doesn’t matter what point in your career you are at, what school you went to, or whether you have a degree or not. We want amazing people with a desire to make a difference.

Unreasonable Hospitality
- Ensure the overall guest experience from booking to departure is exceptional.
Local Relationships

We recognise that this process is two way and that you will be interviewing us perhaps even more than we will be interviewing you – we promise that it won’t be a dull process.
