Plant technicians are the back bone to our business, they are the team members who visit customer sites and look after the plant displays to ensure they continue to look great and thrive. If you like plants and getting out and about, visiting all types of businesses, then this is the job for you. What’s also great our plant technicians mainly work on indoor plants, so unlike most jobs in horticulture, you will not be working in the elements!
