Tractor Driver / Senior Gardener

You must have experience in grounds maintenance with recent experience of driving tractors (a full driving licence is required, along with certification for tractor operations). You will be competent at connecting and detaching three-point linkage attachments, drawn attachments and PTO shafts.

As a Senior gardener you would be expected to have a mature attitude with the ability to direct a small team. You will be the public face of Fareham Borough Council so it is vital to us that the right person can speak to customers and colleagues in a friendly, polite and professional manner.

You will need to be able to work in all weathers and it is vital to us that you have a sense of pride and the commitment to do a good job without close supervision.

Fareham Borough Council is a great place to work. The low staff turnover and high number of employees that have worked here for 20 years or more is testament to this, and you would be joining an organisation that has a real family feel to it.

We take pride in receiving feedback from others who say we are a friendly and professional organisation. We aim to attract, develop and retain the very best people to carry out the work required.

In return, you would be joining a well-managed Council. We offer a great pension scheme, authorised parking, flexible working and a car lease scheme to name a few of the benefits of working for us.
