Our Vacancy
Join Our Gardening Team at Peabody – Where Every Day is a Breath of Fresh Air
Do you enjoy working outdoors, getting hands-on with nature, and making green spaces shine? If so, we’ve got a role that’s right up your street.
About the Role
As an Estate Services Gardener, your day might begin with tackling scheduled grounds maintenance tasks—trimming hedges, planting vibrant seasonal beds, mowing lawns, and keeping weeds under control. You’ll be involved in all kinds of horticultural activities, helping to keep our estates looking their best. You’ll also play a key role in ensuring green waste is disposed of responsibly and in line with regulations.
You’ll be part of a friendly, hard-working team that’s passionate about creating beautiful environments. Working closely with colleagues and residents, you’ll help shape Peabody’s outdoor spaces into places people are proud to call home.
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.
