Careers
Turn a passion for plants into a thriving career. Horticulturalists specialise in the growing of plants, including their propagation, cultivation, maintenance, and breeding. Viticulturalists specialise in the cultivation, management, and study of grapevines.
Cultivate quality fruit, vegetables and crops
Growing quality plants yield quality fruit, vegetables and crops that are essential for the world's food. Horticulturalists use science to improve plant yields and sustainability, develop new varieties for a changing climate, support food security and feed the world. Shape the future of grape growing as a vitculturalist by optimising grapevine health, soils and water use, disease management and sustainability of vineyard practices.
Horticulturalists work across diverse growing environments, including paddocks of vegetables, protected tunnels, orchards, and nurseries, and indoor growing environments using modern precision agriculture technologies to increase productivity and support year-round production. Viticulturalists' roles vary across the seasons with opportunities to travel across wine regions for work, including to establish new vineyards, maintain grow and produce wine. Roles range from hands-on growing to managing whole operations.
Horticulturalists specialise in using science knowledge and techniques across all stages of growing plants, including their propagation, cultivation, maintenance, and breeding. Horticulturalists use specialist knowledge of plant health and nutrition, combined with an understanding of soils, pests and diseases and the environment to optimise agricultural production. Viticulturalists specialise in the cultivation, management, and study of grapevines for wine production or table grapes. Tasks amongst the vines vary across the seasons, from pruning, soil management, pest and disease control, to harvest and wine production.
