Are you passionate about plants, the outdoors, and learning practical skills? We’re looking for a motivated Apprentice Gardener to join our team and develop hands-on experience in all aspects of gardening and grounds maintenance.

Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working outside, takes pride in creating beautiful spaces, and wants to build a long-term career in horticulture. We have a great reputation and a loyal customer base, and we are looking for someone who will also take pride in their work. Experience is not essential but an interest in gardening and the outdoors would be an advantage. For the right candidate, we would provide in-depth on-the-job training plus competitive rates of pay. Our gardens always look beautiful, so you'd be learning from the experts.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
