QUALIFICATIONS

• Valid Florida driver’s license with a clean driving record
• Reliable, punctual and comfortable working independently
• Able to work outdoors in South Florida heat and weather
• Able to lift and carry at least 50 pounds
• Comfortable operating spray equipment and working with lawn-care products
• Strong attention to detail and customer-service skills
