What's on your to-do list before Easter?
Could it be polishing up your CV for an exciting new role?
Or simply telling your landscape manager friend or colleague about this most unusual opportunity at Highgate Cemetery?
One of the most exciting new roles in landscape is here! You will need to balance conservation, horticulture, burial operations, and visitor experience in this unique and sensitive environment. We don't expect you will have worked in a cemetery before but, if you have, great!
ALT Head of Landscape at Friends of Highgate Cemetery Trust. New role, full time position in Highgate, London N6. The role is responsible for all landscape-related activities across the Cemetery, including the strategic management of landscape operations, burial area planning and grave renewal operations.

Is @taylorswift13 the new Lizzie Siddal?
Here she is as Ophelia.
The other iconic image of Ophelia is by Millais, whose model, the enchanting Lizzie Siddal, is buried at Highgate Cemetery.
There you go. A Highgate Cemetery <-> Taylor Swift connection you never new about.

We're interested in hearing from first-time trustees and those who might not previously have considered joining a board.
We are particularly keen to receive applications from people in our local
community, and people with identities which are underrepresented.
