The Hidden Gardens is a multi-award winning art and design garden and Scotland’s first sanctuary gardens dedicated to peace. Join our team and help us nurture this urban greenspace for all to enjoy.

We are currently looking for an Outdoor Learning Facilitation worker to join our team.

Outdoor Learning Facilitation worker (£14.18 per hour)

The Hidden Gardens is a multi-award-winning art and design garden and Scotland’s first sanctuary gardens dedicated to peace. Located between the communities of Pollokshields East and Govanhill; we are a small, friendly organisation run by a team of part-time staff and the heads, hearts and hands of many volunteer trustees, advisors and gardeners. Broadly speaking, we aim to promote health and wellbeing – of people, and the planet.

We are looking for someone to deliver 21 inspiring short outdoors learning sessions, using the gardens as a resource, with small groups of pupils from several local primary schools, working adhoc hours (70 hours) from mid-May onwards during term time with a plan to commence in mid-May. Sessions will be scheduled by the project assistant, based on the availability of the schools and the facilitation worker.

An ability to communicate positively with a wide range of people will be important; as is experience of training or facilitating outdoors in a community setting.

We are open to hearing from applicants who are available specifically for this work and from those who are interested in future work supporting children, young people or adults.

Application closing date: 9am, Thursday 18 Apr 2024.
