Overview of the Role:
A wonderful opportunity has arisen at RHS Garden Hyde Hall to join our amazing garden team as a Gardener, focussing on the Western, more formal side, of the Hilltop Garden including the Modern Rose Garden, new Rose Rope Walk and our colour themed Herbaceous Border.
We are looking for a skilled and passionate Gardener who takes pride in their work, with a keen eye for detail and a good plant knowledge as you will be carrying out a wide variety of gardening tasks across the Hilltop Garden. You should also be proactive as we continually aim to enhance and refine the planting in these areas of the garden to maintain our high horticultural standards.
You should be a good team player and enjoy working in a team environment and you should also have the ability to guide or be willing to learn to guide less experienced colleagues such as volunteers and our learners.
To work for the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is to join a thriving charity, whose mission is to be there for everyone on their lifelong adventure with gardening. Everything we do is built on the transformational power of gardening – and the benefits it brings to people, places and our planet.
And we couldn’t do this without our people. We’re proud of the knowledge, enthusiasm and ideas that each one of our team members brings. From working across our social media channels, to volunteering in the RHS Gardens, from serving customers in our garden centres to running national marketing campaigns, we believe that every member of the RHS team should have the opportunity to make a difference. Our careers portal here provides a comprehensive overview of what we offer, the teams that work at the RHS and our great benefits.
