Field and Lawn Ltd are a national company made up of four divisions: Event Marquee hire, Industrial Structures, Festive Lighting and Placemaking. With bases in Edinburgh, Manchester, Bristol, and London, we have seen consistent growth each year across all our divisions.

We are now recruiting for a yard assistant, primarily washing the PVC and ensuring we are maintaining the highest industry standards. This is an entry level position, for anyone interested in beginning a career within the events industry. There is room for growth and we pride ourselves on training and developing our people. The last two people within the role have progressed and are now working with our onsite installation teams.

All year we provide our event marquees for a wide range of uses such as: music and food festivals, international sporting events, medical facilities, government events, security events, exhibitions, and corporate hospitality. We have also partnered up with a leading European manufacturer to supply and install custom made, permanent and semi-permanent industrial structures throughout the UK at all times of the year. These are designed specifically for the client and no structure is the same. They can be used for warehousing, workshops, canteens, loading canopies and sporting courts.

A growing element of our business in recent years has been installing festive lighting schemes from October-January. We are involved in some of the UK's biggest Christmas lighting displays such as Oxford St, Bond St, Covent Garden, big cities such as Edinburgh, Glasgow, Kingston Upon Thames, Watford, Hackney and Cambridge.

Outside of the Christmas period we are actively involved in installing decorative flags, banners, and bunting (placemaking) into many well-known city centre streets to compliment the areas during the summer period. We are in the process of developing this sector to supply even more decorative products for high streets and public spaces.

We want people who are looking for a long-standing, dynamic, and rewarding career, with the opportunities to progress through the business and take advantage of training and support available to advance.

The following skills/attributes are essential:
