Assistant Gardener
The Bishop’s Palace, Wells, Somerset
22.5 Hours per week (worked 3 consecutive days)
Salary: £24,242.40pa (FTE) (Actual salary: £14,742)
The Bishop’s Palace is a 13th century medieval palace and has been home to the Bishops of Bath and Wells for over 800 years. The Palace is surrounded by a breath-taking moat, drawbridge and iconic gatehouse. It is a beautiful and inspirational place to work.

Key tasks will include:
• Maintain all aspects of the garden to an exceptionally high standard for example grass cutting, tree and shrub maintenance, green house work, weeding, infrastructure (paths, steps, seats etc)
• Ensure that the garden is presented as attractively and safely as possible at all times
• Respond to visitor needs, comments and queries in the grounds whenever necessary.
You will have at least 1 year’s practical experience of gardening with good knowledge of plants and kitchen gardening. You will also hold a Horticulture qualification such as RHS or City & Guilds. Ideally you will have some experience of working with volunteers and vulnerable adults plus have experience of working in a Heritage Garden or Visitor attraction garden. You will also have excellent customer service skills and the ability to work as part of a team and use initiative.
This role has potential to increase hours in the future.
