Why Choose Hortus Recruitment?

​

Hortus Recruitment is more than just a recruitment agency — we’re a strategic partner dedicated to helping you build stronger teams, reduce hiring stress, and find the talent that drives your business forward. We specialise exclusively in the construction, landscaping, and horticulture sectors, which means we understand your world, your workflows, and the skills that matter most on the ground.

Unlike generalist agencies, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every vacancy is treated as a unique opportunity to match the right person with the right team. Whether you're seeking a reliable site team, a creative garden designer, or a skilled horticulturist, we’ll deliver candidates who align with your expectations, project goals, and company values.

​

The Benefits of Working With Us
​
✅ Industry-Specific Expertise

We know the difference between a hard landscaper and a labourer, or a nursery manager and a grower — because we've worked with them. Our recruiters understand role requirements in detail, so you don’t waste time explaining what should be obvious.

​

✅ Pre-Vetted, Work-Ready Candidates

Our database is full of experienced professionals who are ready to go. From builders and carpenters to plant specialists and design assistants, every candidate is interviewed, referenced, and skills-assessed before they reach your desk.

​

✅ Faster Hiring, Better Matches

Time is money — and the longer a role remains vacant, the greater the risk to your project or operations. We shorten the hiring cycle by presenting only high-quality candidates who meet your brief, helping you get the right hire the first time.

​

✅ Flexible Solutions for Every Need

Need a landscaper for a 6-week contract? A foreman for a year-long build? Or a permanent horticulturist for your garden centre team? We offer temporary, seasonal, and permanent recruitment options to meet your needs, however specific they may be.
