Shoot managers work for large estates, land owners or for syndicate groups or private shoots, organising shoot days or weekends. They organise the beaters, loaders, dogs, arrange the hunt lodge, catering for the day, other accommodation as required and liaise with the gamekeepers and associated staff. They are also responsible for health and safety, must have knowledge of shoot licencing laws, and may also have a role in training and coaching.  They may also take on the duties of a gamekeeper.
