This is an exciting time for Hartpury, as from September 2018 we became both a university and a college on a single campus; an amazing achievement in the history of our institution. As a land based residential institution renowned for excellence in sport, equine and land based studies, we aim to provide a unique high quality experience in a focused and supportive environment, challenging our learners in the pursuit of excellence.   

The grounds team provides high quality match day preparations for both the College and University Football and Rugby fixtures. This also includes pitch preparation for the Hartpury RFC team, currently playing in the Rugby Green King Championship. 

A dedicated, self-motivated and forward-thinking individual, you will be flexible, hands on, a pro-active team worker and be able to work to deadlines. You will have practical experience of maintaining sports grounds and associated machinery.

We offer excellent benefits including training, 25 days’ annual leave entitlement plus bank holidays, onsite fitness facilities, free onsite parking, membership of the local Government Pension Scheme and lots more. A uniform and PPE is also provided. 

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.  We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment.  All successful candidates will be subject to Disclosure and Barring checks along with other relevant employment checks.
