If you enjoy working outdoors, like practical hands-on work and take pride in getting things done properly, this could be a great fit.

Who we're looking for

Nursery, horticulture, landscaping or agriculture experience is highly regarded, but it isn't essential.

• Reliable and ready to work
• Physically fit and comfortable outdoors
• Positive and willing to learn
• Able to work well as part of a team
