What I'm looking for

I seek outdoor gardening or grounds-maintenance roles where I can apply horticultural skills, lead small teams, and work on well‑maintained public or commercial sites.

I am an experienced grounds and maintenance gardener with extensive work across cemeteries, parks, and large commercial grounds in London. I deliver precise grass and hedge cutting, planting, mulching, feeding, and general landscape upkeep, often handling prestige bookings that require neat, well‑manicured results.

I have repeatedly worked for established agencies and contractors, leading small teams and operating a wide range of handheld tools and machinery, including petrol trimmers and mowers. I am reliable, safety conscious, physically fit, and able to work independently or as part of a team.

I bring a positive, organized, and practical approach to outdoor maintenance, and I remain committed to quality and consistency. I take planned breaks for family commitments overseas but return to continue contributing my horticultural and grounds‑maintenance expertise.
