***INTERNAL APPLICANTS ONLY PLEASE***

We’re looking for a Horticultural Support Lead to join our Gardens & Parks team, working at a national level to provide expert guidance, training, and hands-on support across a diverse portfolio of gardens. This is a collaborative role where you’ll mentor teams, shape sustainable horticultural practices, and help drive forward strategic and environmental improvements across our sites.

With a focus on our smaller garden teams, you’ll spend time in gardens to help problem solve, mentor and support with plant procurement and garden health. You’ll also play a key role in engaging the gardens and parks volunteering community and moving horticultural approach forward to meet future strategic and environmental needs.
