Do you love the idea of selling something that actually helps the planet?
We're looking for a Horticulture Sales Specialist to join one of the UK's leading tree producers, a business that's playing a huge role in reforestation, sustainability, and the future of the UK's landscape.
If you're passionate about nature, enjoy building relationships, and thrive in a role where no two days are the same, this could be the opportunity for you.
About the Business
This is no ordinary nursery; it's one of the largest and most advanced in the UK, producing millions of trees every year for projects that support biodiversity, carbon capture, and sustainable forestry.

Manage relationships with existing customers and develop new ones across multiple sectors - from estates and landowners to landscapers and local authorities.
Handle sales enquiries, quotes, and tenders - following up to turn opportunities into orders.

Collaborate with internal teams to ensure smooth delivery and exceptional customer service.
Keep up to date with trends in the amenity, forestry, and environmental sectors - spotting opportunities to grow both business and impact.

Experience in sales or business development (B2B or B2C)
A track record of building strong, long-term customer relationships
Confidence to seek out and convert new opportunities
Great organisational skills, attention to detail, and commercial awareness
A genuine enthusiasm for the environment, sustainability, or horticultureIf you've sold into the amenity, land management, or green industries before, that's a huge plus.
Why You'll Love It
Join a purpose-driven business that's literally helping grow the future
Be part of a supportive, down-to-earth team that loves what they do
Competitive salary + annual bonus
30 days' holiday (including bank holidays)
Life assurance and other great benefits
