We are looking for people with real, hands-on landscaping industry experience who understand the demands of working on professional properties. This is not an entry-level yard work position. Successful candidates will have experience working with commercial or residential landscaping companies, operating equipment, maintaining properties to a high standard, and working efficiently as part of a professional crew.
We are hiring for both an Experienced Landscape Maintenance Technician and a Landscape Maintenance Crew Leader.
