Patch Managers

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to be involved in a new age start up. We are the world's first no-dig allotment company who want to provide people with a space to grow nutritious food, connect with other like minded human beings and experience the wellbeing boost of spending time in nature.

Our allotment sites have community at the heart of them and thrive on good vibes created by patch manager and the wider Roots team. We are looking for someone with green fingers to represent the Roots brand.  From welcoming customers to watering patches, or teaching local school kids how to grow, you'll be the heart and soul of our newly launching growing community. There will be some computer based work needed but you'll be outside enjoying the sunshine most of the time.
