At Better Place Bradford, our mission is to identify and oversee improvements to local parks and outdoor spaces with the aim of providing a healthier and happier environment for babies, young children and families. We work across larger parks, pocket parks, community centres, streets and green spaces across BD3, BD4 and BD5.

We are seeking an enthusiastic, passionate, and highly motivated individual, who is looking to gain some practical landscape maintenance experience.

  • Enjoy being outdoors (in all weather)
  • Are not afraid of physical work
  • Want to make a difference in your local area
  • Are comfortable getting to sites across BD3/BD4/BD5
  • Enjoy interacting with members of the public
