The Grosvenor Family Office is responsible for the management of operational and advisory support services, including activities focused on heritage and conservation. Part of the Family Office are the Grosvenor Rural Estates, whose teams are responsible for the long-term stewardship of the Eaton, Abbeystead and Reay Forest estates in the United Kingdom.
We offer a truly unique working environment with diverse activities and locations which means we’re looking for talented people with the wide range of skills and specialisms we need to help us deliver on our ambitions.
Our activities span the conservation of precious, often protected, environments, improving properties and places in our local communities.
We support the activities and interests of the Grosvenor family as well as operating leading commercial activities, such as the production of nutritious milk and cereal grains on our award-winning farm or manufacturing sustainable timber products.
This diverse work requires a breadth of roles from property managers, specialist trades – including heritage and traditional skills – to conservationists, foresters, farm hands and more typical professional services.
We're part of something much bigger too. Internationally, our business spans rural estate management, urban property, food and agtech, and support for philanthropic initiatives. All united by a common purpose: to deliver lasting commercial, social and environmental benefit.
Sustainability and supporting our communities are the common threads running through all our activities, from our ambitious net zero carbon aspirations to restoring populations of endangered species, the management of over 2,800 hectares of woodlands and enhancing our homes and commercial properties to be more resilient to the impacts of climate change.
We’ve managed our rural estates for centuries and we use the learning from our history to apply a far-sighted perspective, taking responsibility for future generations.
We work close to nature, whether that’s in the Scottish Highlands, among the mosaic of habitats which make up Bowland’s upland moorland in Lancashire or the fertile agricultural land of the Cheshire plain.
We’re a progressive and innovative organisation, frequently the leader in the sector, from retrofitting historic properties, producing milk with one of the lowest carbon footprints in the UK or being recognised for best practice in conservation.
The variety of roles, skills and environments on our rural estates make us a unique and diverse organisation; muddy boots are a common sight in our ‘offices’ which comprise everything from the conventional to roof tops, riverbeds and tractor cabins.
