Who are Exubia?

Starting from a back garden in 1976, we have now grown to be the chosen office planting partner of some of the world’s most respected architectural design and construction companies.

We design, create and maintain unique interior landscapes for clients in high-end office and hospitality spaces. Established for over 40 years, we care for planting in some of the most exciting offices in the UK.

What is the role?

Due to company growth, we require additional soft landscapers to maintain live plants in our clients’ offices’.

If you are looking for a role where you are out and about every day and would be passionate about keeping our customers and their plants happy, then this could be the perfect job for you!

Where are you located?

We are located in Long Wittenham, just outside of Didcot. But our team come from all across Oxfordshire and Berkshire. It is important to note that the role does require early starts, so it is important you are within a commutable location.
