Do you love the outdoors? Are you looking for a flexible role where you can earn bonuses for your success?

Bluebonnet Lawn & Landscaping is growing, and we are looking for a Field Estimator to help us respond to new client requests. This is the perfect role for a self-starter, a college student with a business mindset, or a local resident who wants to turn their knowledge of The Woodlands into extra income.

We provide the training and the tools; you provide the hustle and the customer service.

For over 35 years, Bluebonnet Landscaping & Lawn Care has been a trusted, locally-owned staple in The Woodlands. We are a small but mighty company currently in an exciting season of growth. With two dedicated lawn maintenance crews, a full-time landscaping crew, and immediate plans to expand to a third maintenance crew, we need a driven Field Estimator to help keep our teams busy and continue building our legacy in the community!

The Pay & Perks

• Base Pay: $13.00 – $17.00/hour (Based on experience).
• Performance Bonuses: Earn commission on every landscaping project sold to new customers and for every recurring maintenance client signed. Your bonus income is not capped.
• Mileage Reimbursement: We pay the full IRS federal rate ($0.725 per mile) for every mile you drive for work.
• Flexible Schedule: Work within core business hours (8 AM - 5 PM), but you pick the specific times that work for you.

What You Will Do

• Visit Properties: Receive a list of potential clients in The Woodlands area and drive to their homes to assess their lawn and landscaping needs.

• Client Communication: Call and text interested homeowners to answer questions and close the deal.
• Manage the Sales Pipeline: Keep track of your open leads to ensure no potential customer is left waiting.

What We Need From You
