Incredible Experience

"During my time at Green Giant Gardens, I loved the positive team culture Nathan, and his team upheld. I found the variety of work very appealing from design through to project completion. 

I found the attention to detail, willingness pursue better ways of doing things and willingness to fill knowledge gaps was clearly the major contributing factor that set Green Giant Gardens from their competitors in the marketplace.

Nathan was always happy to listen and take action to staff concerns as well actioning workplace improvements which greatly benefitted both clients and staff.

Green Giant Gardens really has stood apart from many of my previous workplace experiences. On reflection I believe Nathan's unrelenting pursuit for excellence and unwavering customer focus embedded a culture of continuous improvement amongst the team. 

I believe Nathan's collaborative approach to running the business enabled all team members to take ownership in their respective roles, which resulted in the best outcomes for both the business and its clients."

Heaps of Variety, no two days the same

"I thoroughly enjoy working with Nathan at Green Giant Gardens. We work on a great variety of projects everything from maintenance jobs big and small in high end, well looked after gardens, to creating fresh new spaces for our clients. Each week is something different, with lots to learn in different styles of gardens and working with different landscape architects. Great team environment working together each day bouncing ideas off of each other.

It's a great place for growth and skill development as Nathan is very knowledgeable within the industry and is always open to share his knowledge and help out with any queries. The range of different jobs we do really gives you the opportunity to broaden your knowledge on gardens in Christchurch and New Zealand. Using a wide range of skills maintaining and planting gardens, creating new spaces, managing pests and disease and working with many different plants and also designers and other people in the industry.

  What sets Green Giant apart from other places I've worked is the attention to detail and pride we put into our work having the best outcome and visions in mind for our clients. We go above and beyond to satisfy our clients needs and create lovely gardens that will be happy and healthy long term. Finding out the root of any problem in their gardens and coming up with sustainable long term well thought out solutions so our clients garden can flourish at their full potential."
