Growth Marketing Associate

Hello, we're Sproutl, and we believe in growing for all. Who cares if you've never picked up a trowel before? This is gardening made easy.

We're on a mission to transform the way the world thinks about gardening and get everyone to plant something. To us a garden can be as small as a windowsill or a tiny rented patio. Swathes of sweet peas, towering bamboo, a veg patch to make Michelin chefs swoon. These are not the preserve of the professionals. In fact, they can be yours with a swipe. We bring the best in gardening from your phone to your door for patios, pots, windowsills, and backyards.

Great for your mental health, great for your physical health, great for the environment and--let's face it--looks great on Instagram, gardening checks all the boxes! Welcome to the modern garden.
