Summary

We are looking for a Landscape Supervisor to join our employee owned business.

We are a national award winning company, specialising in private garden design-and-build projects, predominantly in Kent.

Being owned by an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT), all employees have a stake and ‘voice’ within the business and after a preliminary period are entitled to share in the profits the business makes on a fair basis.

We are a friendly but professional company offering a collaborative and supportive working environment.

The role involves 'hands-on' leading a team of typically 2 or 3 persons, undertaking garden construction to a high standard. Projects will range from single feature installations (eg patios, lawns, decks, planting) to whole garden landscaping, working from plans and to best practice specifications.

Essential requirements

The successful applicant will : *Have experience in a similar role and work setting or be ready to step up to the responsibilities of the position. * Be over 25 years old to comply with our vehicle insurance policy (driving a 3.5 tonne vehicle will be involved). * Have a wide range of landscaping skills. Particularly valued skills are laying natural stone and porcelain slabs, small unit paving (bricks, setts and edgings), working with timber (fencing and structures), planting and turfing. Good plant knowledge is a bonus. *Be able to organise themselves and the team to deliver high quality installations to quality and time targets. *Communicate with and motivate colleagues, liaise with clients and with the management team. *Have an aptitude for physical, sometimes strenuous work in the full range of weathers. Selected applicants will be offered an informal telephone/Whatsap interview initially and a personal interview to follow for final shortlisted candidates. * Applicants must have a full driving licence and own transport (to get to our yard at Chartham Hatch near Canterbury for a 7.30 a.m. start)
