RHS Garden Bridgewater Work Experience
RHS Garden Bridgewater is the newest garden of the Royal Horticultural Society located in Salford, Greater Manchester.
We offer work experience opportunities of up to one week, subject to availability, for individuals 18+ who are interested in developing a career in horticulture and would like to gain some practical experience to support onward training (Level 2) or career exploration. All placements are a great way for you to explore what it is like in the horticultural workplace.
Placements are offered within the following teams:
- Gardens (Curatorial) -
To apply for a placement you will need to complete the application form and tell us specifically why you would like to undertake work experience with the RHS.
Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Your application will be scored against other applications received at the point of review, and you will be notified whether you have been successful or unsuccessful in being awarded a placement.
If you are successful, but your chosen team is no longer available (this could be due to spaces already having been filled or dates being incompatible), you will be offered an alternative team.
PLEASE NOTE: all applicants need to be a UK or ROI citizen or be in receipt of a full UK work visa valid for the duration of any placement. The RHS is not able to sponsor visa applications.
If you have any questions before, or during, the application process please contact us at newshoots@rhs.org.uk
We are committed to being an inclusive recruiter and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. We are also committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk and expect all applicants to share this commitment.
