What Will I Be Doing?

As a Sales / Nursery Assistant, you'll be part of a small, friendly, and knowledgeable team in a specialist tree and shrub nursery. This is a varied, hands-on role where you'll divide your time between customer-facing sales work and outdoor nursery tasks, depending on the season.

From October to March, you'll be focused on sales answering phone enquiries, preparing quotes, and processing orders. From April to September, your time will shift more toward nursery work, including watering, pruning, feeding, and general plant care.

You'll get the best of both worlds: supporting customers directly and gaining practical horticultural experience in a supportive, small-team environment.

Your key responsibilities will include:

Providing excellent customer service in person and over the phone
Preparing quotations and processing orders accurately
Carrying out seasonal nursery tasks to maintain healthy plant stock
Working closely with a small team of 5 as part of a wider 13-person operationWhat Do I Need?

You don't need formal qualifications, just a genuine interest in plants and horticulture, and a practical, team-oriented attitude. You'll be comfortable working both indoors and outside, and enjoy a hands-on, active role.

We're ideally looking for someone who:

Has some basic plant knowledge (especially trees and shrubs)
Enjoys interacting with customers and providing great service
Is comfortable using a computer (training provided)
Is physically fit and happy working outdoors in all weather
Works well as part of a small, close-knit teamWhether you're experienced or looking to train in horticulture, we'd love to hear from you.
