Description

Activities at The Carnegie Club

The Skibo estate covers 8,000 acres, stretching from the shore of the Dornoch Firth through links land, parkland, lochs and forest, to the heights of our expansive moor to the north.

This diverse environment provides the backdrop for our Activities team to lead members and guests of all ages in a wide variety of pursuits, from shotgun shooting and archery to canoeing, paddleboarding, hill walking and biking.

Last spring, our new Activities Hub – the Treehouse at Overskibo – launched, introducing an exciting range of new and bespoke experiences for our members.

About The Role

As a Shotgun & Adventure Instructor, you’ll play a key role in delivering exceptional clay pigeon shooting experiences while also supporting the wider Activities programme. Your primary responsibility will be leading safe, engaging and tailored clay pigeon shooting sessions for members and guests, ranging from first-time shooters to experienced shots.

Alongside shooting, you’ll be involved in delivering a variety of other outdoor activities. While experience in these areas is beneficial, full training can be provided – your shotgun instructor qualification is essential.

At Skibo, we pride ourselves on being seamlessly connected. You’ll collaborate closely with other departments across the Club to ensure every member enjoys a personalised and memorable experience.

You’ll adapt sessions to suit individuals of different ages, abilities and interests, creating positive, educational and confidence-building experiences aligned with the Club ethos.

Your responsibilities will also include:
  • Assessing risks and producing relevant risk assessments
  • Maintaining firearms, equipment and activity areas to the highest standards
  • Ensuring all activities are delivered safely and in line with current legislation and best practice


About You

Skills & Experience
  • You hold a recognised Shotgun Instructor qualification (essential).
  • Experience or qualifications in other activities (e.g. fishing, archery, paddlesports, cycling, hill walking) are desirable but not essential – training can be provided.
  • You hold a First Aid certificate (or are willing to obtain one).
  • You hold a full, clean UK driving licence.
  • You have a strong awareness of Health & Safety and safe operating procedures.
Personal Attributes
  • You have a genuine passion for the outdoors and for creating outstanding experiences for members and guests.
  • You are confident, professional and enthusiastic when communicating with members, guests and colleagues.
  • You have strong leadership skills and are comfortable taking responsibility in a dynamic outdoor environment.
  • You are adaptable, approachable and able to tailor your delivery to suit different personalities and abilities.
You don't need to meet every point listed above to be a great fit for the role. Instead, focus on showcasing your strongest skills, experience and personal qualities - we're interested in what makes you a great fit for the role and how you can contribute your unique strengths to our team.

What We Offer You

  • Share of gratuities
  • 33 days annual leave pro-rata
  • Auto enrolment pension scheme
  • Occupational sick pay
  • Family friendly support
  • Life cover
  • Access to wellness platform providing support on nutrition, exercise, health, finances, legal support and more
  • Access to staff benefit scheme which includes cycle to work and tech scheme, contribution towards eyecare and discounts on high street retailers

Don't forget to check out our Benefits section on the Homepage for more details!


Great teams are built on diversity, curiosity, and respect. If you’re excited by our mission and think you could make an impact, we’d love to hear from you - even if you don’t tick every box.
At Skibo Castle, you’ll become part of a passionate and close-knit team dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences in one of Scotland’s most extraordinary settings. Whether front-facing or behind the scenes, every role contributes to the unique magic that members and guests feel the moment they arrive. Working here means being surrounded by natural beauty, rich heritage, and a community that values professionalism, warmth, and genuine hospitality. If you’re looking for a place where your work has meaning, your colleagues feel like family, and every day brings opportunities to grow, we’d love to welcome you to the team.
