Jersey Heritage is looking for someone to take on the unique job of performing medieval falconry at Mount Orgueil.
Mike Entwistle, the current Castle Falconer, is retiring and the search is on for his replacement.
"This is a unique role that engages the historic skills of a falconer and an ability to capture the imagination of visitors to Mont Orgueil.
I found it very rewarding as people always enjoyed my falconry demonstration and were excited to see a trained hawk flying free at the Castle."
No previous experience is needed - as the successful applicant will be trained up ahead of demonstrations starting in May.
It's a paid role but the training will be carried out on a voluntary basis.
That training will be with Richard Hall. He will teach the new Falconer how to handle and work with Sovereign the hawk.
The demonstrations take place twice a week from May until the end of September.
"Jersey Heritage has provided falconry demonstrations at Mont Orgueil for many years. It was an activity central to medieval life and the Castle Falconer is an important costumed role at what is one of our most popular visitor sites.
Mike has done a fantastic job for us and his replacement needs to be someone with a passion for local history and who enjoys being around animals, while also relishing the opportunity to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with our visitors." - Chris Addy, Jersey Heritage Sites Curator.
