Hope you are well. Sorry for not replying before.
 
I suggest that maybe it should be taken into consideration the fact that this is or should be a competition of ideas. This means that finding a ‘permanent gardener’ that will be willing to stay at Somerset is maybe not a very logical winning prize.
 
If the aim of the competition is to find a ‘youthful-smart and contemporary person’ as I understood, maybe it could be a good idea to try to think what a person like that will be and I think that definitely will mean that we are talking about a ‘mobile person’. 
 
It should be specified that he/she can be in charge of the supervision and production of it without staying there permanently and maybe 2nd and 3rd prize would be useful too as to put it into a more ‘competition’ category.
 
I think that one thing is the brilliancy of the idea that I guess is something being searched through this competition and the other is a job advertisement for a permanent residency, and maybe by putting the two together a lot of interesting entries will be missed.
