Job description

About us

Birch creates spaces where you can rest, explore, connect, work, taste, move or dance as you wish – all in one place.

Each space is designed to act as an escape from urban living, a chance to release and reset, free from the judgements, expectations and constraints of daily life. Employing art, food, health (mind & body), craft, music and nature as our brand pillars, think Summertime pool parties at the Lido, making bread in our immersive bakery, ceramics workshops in our in-house potters’ room or a boutique spin class in our Wellness Centre.
