About the Role

This role will suit you if:
• You take real pride in your trade
• You work accurately, cleanly, and with care
• You’re tired of rushed jobs and poor standards
• You want consistent work and a team that values skill
This is not a labourer role.
This is a role for skilled tradespeople and craftsmen.

Your role & specialisms
We recognise that skilled landscapers often come with a core trade.
You might be:
• A joiner specialising in structures, decking, pergolas, and bespoke timber work

• A hard landscaper with strong paving, groundworks, and setting-out skills
You’ll primarily work within your strengths — with the opportunity to broaden your skills over time if you want to. We don’t expect everyone to do everything, but we do value flexibility and collaboration.

What you’ll be doing
• Building high-end gardens from drawings and specifications
• Delivering quality work in your area of expertise
• Working as part of a skilled, professional team
• Maintaining high standards of finish, safety, and site organisation

Pay & Benefits
• £15+ per hour (higher rates for the right experience)
• Full-time, permanent role
• Consistent, year-round work
• Ongoing training and development
• Clear progression routes
• Staff recognition programme
• Private healthcare (including dental & mental health)
• Company pension
• Employee & store discounts
• Free on-site parking
