About the Role
We’re looking for an experienced and knowledgeable Gardener to join a prestigious private estate near Marlow, Buckinghamshire.

Throughout the seasons, you’ll undertake a wide range of horticultural work including skilled pruning, planting, mulching, composting, fertilising, trimming and leaf clearance. You’ll also be confident identifying potential plant and tree health issues and taking the appropriate action when needed.
The role requires someone comfortable using a range of professional gardening machinery and tools, with the experience and knowledge to approach tasks confidently both independently and alongside the established estate team.
Ideal Candidate:
- A minimum of five years’ professional private gardening or private estate experience
