Job Description

Are you interested in plants, wildlife and helping people connect with nature? We’re looking for a Wildflower Nursery Trainee to join our friendly team at Grow Wilder in Bristol. This 12-month traineeship is a practical learning opportunity for someone who wants to develop skills in native wildflower growing, wildlife-friendly gardening, nursery production and working with volunteers and community groups. You do not need to have worked in horticulture before. What matters most is your enthusiasm for nature, your willingness to learn, and your interest in supporting people to feel welcome and confident outdoors. You’ll be supported by experienced staff and will receive training throughout the year, including basic horticultural skills, wildflower identification, seed collection and propagation, plant health, sustainable growing, health and safety, customer communication and record keeping. We particularly welcome applications from people who are currently under-represented in the environmental and horticultural sectors. This may include people from racially minoritised communities, disabled people, neurodivergent people, people from lower-income backgrounds, LGBTQ+ people, carers, and people who have not followed a traditional education or career path.
