Reporting to the Head Gardener, you will work as part of a small, close-knit team delivering a high standard of garden maintenance and hard and soft landscaping within the Cheltenham College campus.

A full, clean driving licence is required and experience of driving a trailer would be beneficial. PA1 and PA6, brush-cutter and chainsaw certification would be desirable but is not essential.
