About The Role
As a Gardener at a Barchester care home, you'll help create the kind of stimulating environment that enables us to deliver quality, person‑centred care. By maintaining our grounds to the highest standards, you'll ensure our home always makes a great first impression, and that our outside areas can be fully enjoyed by residents looking for some fresh air or a change of scenery.
Your role as a Gardener will involve looking after our equipment and structures like fencing, keeping our grounds safe and tidy (including clearing any snow and ice in the winter), and planting a range of flowers, shrubs and trees. Once a year, you'll be able to showcase your talents in our fiercely‑contested Barchester in Bloom competition.
