Make content about: Chris found a new role in horticulture

Redundancy threatened Chris's new home until specialist employment coaching helped him land a flexible job in horticulture.

This story

Chris had an established career as a head gardener in Devon when he was suddenly made redundant in 2020, right after getting the keys to a new home. Anxious about mortgage repayments, he contacted Perennial for debt advice and intensive coaching on his CV and interview technique. He then secured a work-from-home role with a plant retailer, using his horticultural background in a job that suited his lifestyle.
