Girton is a relaxed, friendly, and close-knit college set in 50 acres of greenbelt that provides a stimulating environment for its students, staff, and Fellows.  The job of Head Gardener combines hands on operational day to day management with strategic short, medium, and long-term planning, biodiversity monitoring and occasional research into the historic garden.  The extent and diversity of the estate is one of Girton’s unique selling points and the Head Gardener takes the lead in creating as many opportunities as possible for the Girton community and visitors to enjoy and learn about the Gardens. 

Applications are welcome from candidates of all backgrounds particularly from those belonging to groups that are underrepresented in similar roles among Cambridge Colleges.

We offer 34 days annual leave, free on-site parking, free use of gym and swimming pool, priority places at a local nursery plus other benefits commensurate with working for a large Cambridge University College.
