  • Operate, monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot irrigation, environmental control, lighting, sensors, and other horticultural systems.
  • Manage irrigation and fertilisation programmes according to plant requirements, seasonal conditions, and water quality.
  • Monitor soil, growing media, substrates, drainage, moisture, and root-zone conditions, and prepare or amend growing media as required.
  • Implement greenhouse and conservatory cleaning, sanitation, sterilisation, and biosecurity procedures.
  • Support Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and preventative plant-health programmes.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Horticulture, Botany, Plant Sciences, or a related discipline.
  • Specialist certification or training in greenhouse management, controlled-environment horticulture, irrigation, plant health, or horticultural equipment maintenance is advantageous.
  • Fluency in English and Arabic is required.

Experience

  • Minimum 5 years of relevant professional experience in botanic garden maintenance, greenhouse operations, conservatories, specialist horticulture, or a comparable environment.
  • Proven experience caring for rare, delicate, sensitive, or high-value plant collections.
  • Hands-on experience with controlled-environment systems, irrigation, fertilisation, growing media, plant-health management, IPM, and greenhouse hygiene.
  • Experience operating, troubleshooting, maintaining, and calibrating horticultural and environmental monitoring equipment.
  • Experience implementing preventative and seasonal maintenance programmes and maintaining detailed technical and plant-health records.
  • Experience working collaboratively with horticulture, facilities, engineering, contractors, and specialist technical teams.
  • Previous experience in a botanic garden, conservatory, major public garden, research facility, or specialist horticulture environment is preferred.

Core Competencies

  • Specialist knowledge of botanic garden and controlled-environment horticulture.
  • Strong plant-health assessment and diagnostic skills.
  • Knowledge of irrigation, plant nutrition, soil and substrate management, IPM, and biosecurity.
  • Strong technical and preventative-maintenance skills.
  • Ability to interpret environmental monitoring data and respond to changing plant and system conditions.
  • High attention to detail when working with sensitive collections.
  • Strong planning, record-keeping, problem-solving, and organisational skills.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
