Stunning piece of ground, looking forward to meeting the successful candidate in August.
 
An amazing place and what an opportunity for someone. The list of requirements is long but there will be people with this outdoor passion and experience combined with a can do attitude.
 
This is not for me as the commute would be a killer, but I'm curious what something like this would pay. Any ideas?

With that list, they need a estate manager, overseeing the two ghillies, 90% office work, the odd day on the hill, with the elite guests.
