Love being outdoors? Hate being stuck at a desk? Read on. GreenThumb - the UK's leading lawn care provider, trading since 1986 and proudly part of the Keyto group - is growing fast, and we want you on the team as a Lawn Care Operative at GreenThumb London, covering Hertfordshire, North, East & West London.
We've spent nearly 40 years perfecting what we do: pioneering no-scorch technology, transforming tired lawns, and rolling out our brand-new lawn treatment cycle. And we're not stopping at lawns - we now offer a full suite of outdoor home services including mowing and more, giving our customers everything they need to love their gardens, all year round.
What's in it for you:
- Starting salary £27,831.00
- Annual salary reviews
- Holiday allowance that grows with you - starting at 22 days + Bank Holidays, rising to 26 with length of service
- Sociable hours: 8am-4.30pm, Mon-Fri (with overtime up for grabs)
- Company van and mobile phone
- Brand-new uniform every year
- Fully paid training and pesticide/chemical qualifications
- Ongoing training and real development
- Medical cash plan, company sick pay & enhanced maternity/paternity pay
- Christmas shutdown, free lawn treatments, store discounts
- 24-hour Employee Assistance Helpline
- Long Service & Employee of the Month awards
The job, in a nutshell:
You'll be the face of GreenThumb across your patch - visiting customers daily to apply treatments, diagnose lawn issues, and spot wider opportunities in the garden. You'll offer expert advice, recommend the products and services that suit each customer, and handle seasonal machine work (aerating, scarifying, top-dressing). Every visit is a chance to grow the business and build relationships. Independent, active, outdoors - no two days the same.
Not a lawn care expert? Good. We're not necessarily looking for lawn care experts - we're looking for people who are brilliant with customers. The lawn knowledge will come; we'll train you on all of it. But great customer service can't be taught, and it's at the root of everything we do.
You’ll thrive here if you:
- Hold a full UK manual driving licence
- Love talking to people and delivering brilliant service
- Have a genuine passion for the outdoors
- Are organised, reliable and self-motivated
- Have the right to work in the UK
