Who Are International Greenkeepers For Hire?

International Greenkeepers For Hire is the biggest and friendliest International hub for greenkeepers, groundstaff, and volunteers.

Established in 2019, we’ve quickly made a name for ourselves as the go-to resource to network with like-minded individuals, find new career opportunities, and share your passion for greenkeeping with other members of our enthusiastic online community.   

Our aim is simple: to unite greenkeepers, promote the industry, and help share the art of greenkeeping with others. We’re run by greenkeepers, for greenkeepers—and that’s how it’ll always be.

Access free online education

We don’t believe that bettering your knowledge, honing your skills, and learning more about the science behind greenkeeping should come at a cost. Our website offers free access to a variety of learning resources, including our educational cards, quarterly magazine, podcast, and Live Library. Regardless of your learning style, you’ll find content that suits your preferences here.

If you haven’t already, join our International Greenkeepers Facebook group to seek advice, get inspired by your peers, upload photos of work you’re proud of, or simply share a greenkeeping meme or video that made you chuckle—there are plenty going around!

What Our Members Have to Say

IGFH is an invaluable resource for job searching, but I think especially for those already set in a career, it’s a great way to hear new voices. They say you should never stop learning, and IGFH is a great way to keep up with new trends and ideas.
The International Greenkeepers for Hire (IGFH) is a great organisation for greenkeepers. I particularly like the IGFH's Facebook group where knowledge about the profession is shared.
