Details

Not for the faint hearted.

Robust and physically strong person required to carry strenuous work in a very large domestic garden, some of which is sloping, consisting mainly of trees, shrubs, hedges, grass lawn, paving, and steps. There are few formal plant beds present.

Tasks will involve leaf raking and clearing, high hedge trimming, power jet washing, grass strimming, tree cutting, possibly working off ladders and platforms, painting, gutter clearing, general stacking and clearing and assorted other tasks, occasionally assisted by the property owner but largely not. All work is outside and largely exposed to weather conditions (sun, rain, wind, snow, frost and cold).

Expectation that candidates can largely differentiate between types of plants in the context of ‘what is a weed’ and more formally encouraged growths, email cafoulkes275@gmail.com if you are unsure.

The property lies on the D1 bus route to and from Bath and Bradford on Avon. No travel subsidy is provided. Ideally, candidates should have their own mode of transportation, but it is not essential if the bus is utilised.

A small number of candidates will be selected to individually attend an informal meeting with the property owner to discuss the application for suitability. Details of current circumstance, relevant experience, and ongoing availability should be provided relative to university course commitments, including examination and revision timetables.
