It’s tending to gardens that thousands will admire

It’s taking every opportunity to make your mark. And it’s the pride in joining a team at the heart of a world famous institution. This is what makes working for the Royal Household exceptional.

Our dedicated Gardens and Nursery team care for and present Windsor Castle Gardens and its surrounding areas to an exceptional standard.

From day one, you’ll take ownership of helping to deliver the annual plan of maintenance and work.

Leading a small team, you’ll organise and allocate daily tasks, as well carrying out work yourself, from all important lawn maintenance, to caring for shrub, herbaceous and rose borders.

Helping to shape the future of the gardens, you'll have creative input into planting new shrubberies, bulbs and seasonal flower displays.

You’ll also grow your management skills, monitoring Health & Safety and training records, as well as guiding the performance and development of the team and contractors.

And conserving the garden’s rich biodiversity, as well as its unique history, will continue to inspire you.

With a passion for horticulture, backed up with a relevant qualification (such as HND, ND / NVQ 3 or RHS Level 3 or even a Botanic Diploma in Horticulture), you’re exactly who we’re looking for.

You’ll have previous experience carrying out cyclical maintenance for a high quality landscape garden, ideally within a historic environment. This means you have excellent knowledge of lawn maintenance, and cultivating a broad range of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants.

Able to demonstrate a range of horticultural craft skills, you’ll be well equipped to use the wide range of garden machinery we have here, including rotary machines and large mowers.

It’s a busy environment, so your excellent time management and organisation will be an asset to the team.

Working closely with colleagues will be important to you, and you'll have an adaptable communication style and a collaborative approach to work. You’ll also have some supervisory experience and will be keen to develop your skills to effectively lead a small team.

With lots of initiative and a creative eye, you'll also be keen to contribute new ideas for developing the gardens and grounds. And overall you'll take great pride in your work, delivering beautiful results in all you do.
