Job Description

 

Sought: an Assistant Gardener to help with the upkeep of a large formal private garden. Duties will range across the entire spectrum: planting perennials, trees and shrubs, pruning, dividing, weeding, feeding, mowing, edging, hedge-cutting, propagation. Some understanding of horticulture is an asset, but training will be given and more important is a willingness to learn and take instruction. Would suit a horticultural college-leaver or someone with gardening ability who is keen to improve and gain both practical and theoretical knowledge working closely with a highly experienced gardener.

The successful candidate will be able to work in all weathers. You will have the ability to use a wide range of garden equipment and power tools including mowing, trimming and pruning equipment and have manual skills to lift and move heavy items.
Full-time and part-time hours will be considered, working Monday to Friday.

This is an excellent opportunity for the right person to learn the full range of gardening duties throughout the year.

Due to the location and limited public transport, applicants for this position will require their own transport.
