I have used English Country Gardeners, both as a job applicant and as an Employer, for many years and have always found them responsive, professional and a pleasure to work with. The calibre of gardeners has always been high and a great fit for the jobs advertised.
We are absolutely delighted with the gardener recruited through English Country Gardeners. Their help in forming the brief and selecting a short list demonstrated a real knowledge of the market and was incredibly valuable.
English Country Gardeners assisted me with the process of recruiting two gardeners for two different properties. Sophie Sharpe and her team were extremely friendly, professional and ready to answer any queries we had regarding the process. I would highly recommend English Country Gardeners for any recruiting needs.
