Flexible Work, Better Balance
As a Gardener for the National Trust, you'll be a hands- on member of the countryside team, involved in every aspect of gardening at Sheringham Park. Responsible for day- to- day maintenance and the highest standards of horticulture, you'll also play a vital role in improving the experience of visitors to the garden and wider estates. You'll be part of a rota working some weekends and bank holidays, helping to keep the garden and estates in great condition. This will include helping us to develop our arboretum and preparing the garden and Rhododendron collection for climate change, checking to make sure all areas are safe for people visiting, and routine tasks such as weeding, pruning, planting, staking, mulching, and using machinery such as hedge cutters, leaf blowers, lawnmowers and tractors. Other duties include propagation, recording and enhancing our plant collections and supporting the design of new plantings.
