We are looking for a ‘hungry’, enthusiastic junior manager to manage a portfolio of client accounts — in the first instance, single family homes and small commercial contracts. The successful person needs to visit clients, deal with problems and complaints, identify opportunities to sell additional services, keep accurate records, confirm conversations in well written emails and follow issues through to conclusion.

Greenscapes is committed to extensive computerization and the chosen candidate will have excellent administration skills as well as the ability to talk confidently and clearly to people they have just met. Preference will be given to applicants who, in addition to those essential skills, also have some horticultural knowledge.
