Full job description

Groundsperson – Gardener

Full-time, Permanent (Single Accommodation may be available)

King’s Bruton is seeking an experienced, practical and enthusiastic Groundsperson – Gardener to join our Estates and Gardens team.

Reporting to the Head of Gardens, you will help maintain the School’s extensive grounds, gardens, lawns, sports pitches and outdoor spaces to a high standard. You will join a hardworking and friendly team, helping to ensure that the School environment remains safe, welcoming and well presented for pupils, staff and visitors.

This is a varied, hands-on role involving general grounds maintenance, gardening and support with the upkeep of sports facilities and equipment.

Main responsibilities

  • An electric car leasing scheme through salary sacrifice, subject to eligibility.
  • Discounts with participating local businesses, including 50% off Newt Gardens and Partners.

Benefits are subject to eligibility and the terms of the relevant scheme.
