Program Overview

Program Description:

Vitaverde consists of a team of flexible people, constantly looking for challenges to stretch its boundaries, offering products and services in the field of Greenery. We often facilitate projects with our design department in cooperation with architects, designers and construction companies. We realise the projects we design and provide our customers with the maintenance needed. We do not discriminate between size of project or space, we do however look for projects out of the ordinary, inspiring us to be creative. Examples of projects are vertical gardens, roof gardens, interior gardens and gardens at private and professional spaces.

There are opportunities for projects in marketing, social media and PR, bussiness/management and landscape architecture within our small company where initiative is appreciated and rewarded. Interns will work independently on projects with the support of our team where needed.

Setting Description:

Thessaloniki is Greece's second major economic, industrial, commercial and political centre, and a major transportation hub for the rest of southeastern Europe; its commercial port is also of great importance for Greece and the southeastern European hinterland. The city is renowned for its events and festivals, the most famous of which include the annual International Trade Fair and the Thessaloniki International Film Festival, while visitors are drawn to the nearby archaeological and religious sites, as well as the beaches and turquoise waters of adjacent Halkidiki.
