Gardener

Cheltenham

For an August or September start an exciting opportunity has arisen in the Cheltenham College Estates Team for a full-time Gardener. In some circumstances, and for the right candidate, we may be able to offer slightly different hours or a slight reduction in the working week from the advertised working pattern specified below.

Reporting to the Head Gardener, you will work as part of a small, close-knit team delivering a high standard of garden maintenance and hard and soft landscaping within the Cheltenham College campus.

We seek a reliable individual, with good initiative and the ability to work unsupervised. A good knowledge of horticulture and a qualification in horticulture, or a similar discipline, would be preferable but not essential. Candidates must be able to maintain a positive attitude in all winds and weathers.

The role will involve: Assisting the Gardening team in day-to-day tasks such as hand weeding, pruning, mowing and leaf clean-up. Transporting equipment and personnel safely around property and assisting in the completion of other tasks as directed.

As well as the requirements listed above, this role would require a full, clean driving licence and preferably experience of driving a trailer. PA1 and PA6, brush-cutter and chainsaw certification is desirable but not essential; on-the-job training can be arranged.

 

Full time salary: £25,188.00 per annum.

Working pattern/hours of work: 39 hours per week from 7am to 3.30pm, Monday to Thursday and 7am to 2.30pm on Friday with 30 minute lunch break each day. Additional hours and weekend work may be required as and when specific College functions dictate.

Benefits include:

Free membership to College’s gyms and swimming pool, inclusive lunch available during term time, Executive Pension Scheme, Cycle to Work Scheme, discounts with local retailers and more.
