What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sales - Greenhouse gardener position at Exaco Trading Co.?
Unique job for an avid gardener. EXACO is a 35-year-old family-owned company that is a national importer-distributor of fine European greenhouses and gardening products. We have just opened our own office-showroom-warehouse in Pflugerville (near Tollway 130-Pecan) and want someone who can successfully grow in our indoor German greenhouse, plus help showroom customers who are trying to get basic information on our greenhouses. We need someone who can maintain and grow successfully plants in one of German greenhouses inside the showroom, plus help us with other office tasks (since we don't expect either sales or gardening to be full-time activities). Prefer someone who lives in the area and doesn't have a long commute.
Ideal candidate is personable and can easily talk with potential buyers about the greenhouse and garden structure types Exaco imports. Our showroom has about a dozen models showcasing some of the greenhouses that are sold as kits through major retailers' website. These are high-end kit greenhouses.
This person should be an experienced gardener who can 'play around with' plants' they start in our display model to keep it actively growing veggies, flowers etc. (We have new hydroponic systems we are trying with LED grow lights we would like to test).
