This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and enjoys a blend of horticulture, retail operations, and team leadership.

Who Will I Be Working For?

A close-knit, family-run garden centre group known for their outstanding reputation and high-quality stock.
They pride themselves on employee development and have grown through investing in their people and continuously improving every area of the business.

If you're looking for a supportive environment where your ideas matter and your progression is taken seriously, you'll feel right at home.

About You

  • OR retail management experience combined with strong horticultural knowledge in a professional environment
