Wonderly Lights is a premium outdoor lighting company specializing in landscape lighting, permanent lighting, and holiday lighting installations . We’re growing and looking for a dependable Field Lead who enjoys working outdoors, solving problems in the field, and leading small crews to deliver high-quality installations.

This role is ideal for someone who wants to take ownership of job sites, lead a small team, and grow with a local business.

Responsibilities include:

• Lead a crew of 2–3 installers on landscape and holiday lighting installations 
• Execute installation plans based on project scope and lighting design 
• Ensure crews arrive prepared with materials and equipment 
• Troubleshoot installation challenges and make smart decisions in the field 
• Coordinate with the office manager to confirm job scope and readiness 
• Adapt quickly when plans change due to weather or crew availability 
• Maintain safe, organized, and professional job sites

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail 
• A positive, team-oriented mindset 
• Valid driver’s license with reliable transportation 

Preferred (not required):

Why This Role Is Different

This is a great fit for someone who:

✔ Likes working outdoors
✔ Enjoys leading small teams
✔ Wants year-round lighting work (not just seasonal installs)

You’ll play an important role in delivering installations that customers are excited about and helping build our reputation as a trusted local lighting company.
