We are recruiting for someone to join our friendly hard-working team here at Loch Arthur Farm Shop in our Fruit and Vegetable Department.
Our Farm Shop sells local produce and organic products as well as food and crafts made here at Loch Arthur. Loch Arthur is a working community with our own farms, garden, creamery, bakery and craft workshops and also provides supported living for adults with learning disabilities.
We are looking for a candidate who can work 4 or 5 days per week and who has the ability to work on their own using their initiative but also as part of a team.
Although this role is mainly in our Fruit and Vegetable Department it will also include working in the main Farm Shop with the rest of our team.
