The coastal village of Sandsend, Whitby, has long been home to the historic Raithwaite Hall. Nestled between the North Sea and the North Yorkshire moors. The estate is now the site of a £10 million refurbishment to create a sumptuous wellness-led sanctuary, part of a wider £100 million development. Promising beautiful and homely interiors, an indulgent spa and gym, lavish lodges, and unforgettable dining experiences - Raithwaite Sandsend is being completely reimagined
As we embark on this incredible journey, we’re looking for talented individuals to join us and help transform Raithwaite into a leading destination, redefining luxury hospitality. We are looking for a full-time grower to become an integral part of the team, working collaboratively with our consultant head-grower and assistant growers to help organise the day-to-day running of the gardens and orchard and help to improve its resilience over time.
Day-to-day duties will include all aspects of organic fruit and vegetable production, from harvesting, packing, weeding (not much as we are no-dig), seeding, planting, maintenance, seed saving, composting, and record keeping. You will be expected to assist with fulfilling menu requirements in collaboration with our amazing kitchen team and work on both short and long-term planning with the rest of the team.
Working days will be 5 days across a 7 day week with shared weekend rotas. Hours will generally be 8am - 4:00pm, although this can vary depending on the weather and needs of the business.
