Love being outdoors? Love making things look amazing? Let's talk.
We're JDS Gardening - a young, ambitious team based in Roslin.
Ten years ago, Josh Dow started this business with nothing but a lawnmower and a dream. Today, we've got 15 full-time field staff, a buzzing landscaping division, and big plans for 2025: new yard, new e-commerce sites, new opportunities.
We're growing fast - and we want brilliant people to grow with us.
The Role
You'll be part of a small, friendly crew working across beautiful gardens and commercial sites. No two days are the same.
Rain or shine, you'll be outdoors, getting stuck in and making spaces look their best.
Your day-to-day might include:
Mowing lawns like a pro
Strimming and hedge trimming
Pruning shrubs and maintaining flower beds
Keeping gardens weed-free and looking sharp
Applying herbicides (PA1 & PA6 holders, we love you)
