Plant Area Manager
Hours: 40 hours/week (Alternate weekends)
Location: Worcester

This is a fantastic chance to join a top garden centre group in a centre renowned for its plant offering. The site has a unique charm - almost boutique - where quality, presentation, and care are everything. It's a tight-knit operation, very hands-on, and a real labour-of-love project, making this role perfect for someone who's passionate about their plants and a strong retail manager.

Your Role:

• Take responsibility for hardy, seasonal and house plants, ensuring high standards and consistent presentation throughout
• Manage ordering, allocations, volumes, and commercial decisions to maximise sales and minimise wastage
• Lead a team of around five staff (more in peak), motivating and directing them to deliver exceptional results
• Work closely with the Centre Manager and deputise when required, supporting wider site operations
• Make strong, data-backed commercial decisions using your plant knowledge and retail experience
• Maintain an engaging, well-stocked, plant-heavy environment despite a limited indoor footprint

What We're Looking For:

• Garden centre experience, specifically within plant area manager experience
• Strong horticultural knowledge across all plant categories
• IT literate, especially in Excel
• A confident, hands-on leadership style that gets the best out of a small team
• Commercially minded, with the ability to analyse performance and drive improvements

Perks & Benefits:

• Competitive salary - open to push the mark for outstanding candidates
• Guaranteed year-on-year pay rises - how much it rises depends on your performance.
• Join a respected and expanding garden centre group
• A unique, plant-led environment with a boutique feel
• Staff discount, onsite parking, and wider company benefits
