**Location**: Coram’s Fields, Kings Cross

**Salary**:£26k - £27k per annum depending on experience

**Benefits**: Defined contribution pension scheme, tax free childcare scheme, employee assistance programme, cycle to work scheme, discounted childcare (holiday clubs)

**Hours**: Full-time, 37.5hrs per week, some evening and weekend work required on a rota basis.

Coram’s Fields is one of the most unique open spaces in London. Located in the heart of Bloomsbury, opposite Great Ormond Street Hospital, our seven acre park has existed for the sole benefit of children and young people for 86 years.

A lot has changed during this time. Our park, playgrounds, sports facilities, and community green spaces now welcome around 150,000 visitors every year. Whilst our Grade II listed buildings, the only lasting remains of the Foundling Hospital built in 1739, are home to a wealth of community services, providing essential support for children, young people and families living across Camden, Westminster, and Islington.

Our objective is quite simple. To ensure our park and facilities continue to provide a safe haven for local children, where they can benefit from some of the best facilities available, whether that be our playgrounds, community growing spaces and wildlife garden, sports facilities, or indoor community hubs. Coram’s Fields is a space for children and children alone.

To enable us to achieve our goal, we are now recruiting to the new role of Grounds Person (Gardens and Open Spaces).
- As our Grounds Person for Gardens and Open Spaces, you’ll have the opportunity to transform the experience of children and families using our park. You’ll work closely with our Senior Grounds Person and our wider grounds team, to develop new ideas for the enhancement of our green spaces, community growing areas and play areas, whilst also being responsible for the day to day upkeep of our seven acre site. You’ll also work closely with our team of community volunteers, building on the work that they have done to date to further improve opportunities for children and families to engage with their natural environment.
- We’re looking for somebody with knowledge and experience of what it takes to successfully maintain and develop a park such as Coram’s Fields, and who understands the importance of systems and processes in delivering high standards of maintenance.
- You’ll be a team player, a strong communicator, and somebody who takes immense pride in their work, and who relishes the idea of working with others to deliver tangible improvements to our park for the benefit of local children and young people.

If this all sounds interesting, we’d love to hear from you.
