Join to apply for the Landscape Construction Worker role at Dorset Council UK
If you like to work outdoors, and are happy to work in all weathers, this may be the job for you!
The Landscape Construction Team carry out a huge range of hard and soft landscaping works including garden design and construction, and play equipment installation and surfacing works to sites across Dorset, ranging from school grounds, care homes and libraries to Dorset Council's own properties as well as Town and Parish Council's.
We offer an in-house service to the Council, providing a quick response solution to issues and requirements that arise across the whole of Dorset.
You would be working as part of a team, assisting your Team Foreman to maintain a high standard, cost effective delivery. Being a good team player is therefore essential, as is an ability to be self motivated and hard working.
Good communication and presentation skills are also required as you will be approached by our clients as well as members of the public from time to time.
As a member of the Grounds Maintenance team you will be representing the service, promoting its work and be an advocate for Dorset Council and its partners.
Previous experience in landscape construction or building construction would be an advantage but not essential as in house training would be provided.
Within the Place Directorate, Environment & Wellbeing Service combines front-line service delivery in coast and countryside services with a key corporate function in property management. Dorset’s environment provides the essential goods and services necessary to maintain economic growth and community wellbeing.
