Do you want to transplant trees? Then you are exactly right with us and we look forward to your support of our 10-member team from December 1, 2025, or by arrangement. The Finsterloo Forest Nursery in Winkel not only produces plants but also maintains and manages forests and green spaces throughout the canton of Zurich.
Just as versatile as our team and range, the tasks of our forestry group are as well. In addition to demanding logging along roads and highways, you will, for example, maintain green spaces for nature conservation or plant shrubs and trees for the future. Besides operating our modern forestry crawler, you also have the opportunity to take over the deputy role on the forest tractor.
To support our forestry group, we welcome applications from certified forest rangers EFZ. From seed harvesting to planting to logging, you can participate in all stages of development. Whether with the shovel, chainsaw, or tractor – all tasks will be entrusted to you. You can expect a motivated team and very good employment conditions.
Do you want to leave a mark? If you engage with us at the Building Department, you will shape the face of the canton of Zurich.
Dimitri Herzog is the head of the forest nursery and perhaps your future boss. He is available for your specific questions: 043 257 98 25. We look forward to your online application. Your new environment: www.zh.ch/finsterloo and Forest | Canton of Zurich, more jobs: www.zh.ch/jobs.
