Tree Climber

Savatree

Tree Climber

As a Tree Climber on our General Tree Care Team, you'll play an important role in helping preserve and enhance the health of clients' landscapes. You'll work outdoors, visit beautiful properties, and perform climbing and pruning duties using safe and efficient techniques.

Typical responsibilities include:

  • Working as part of a crew to provide high-quality tree care, including pruning, removals, and cable bracing
  • Safely operating climbing gear, chainsaws, and other equipment
  • Applying proper pruning techniques and tree care practices
  • Following safety procedures at all times
  • Delivering excellent service to clients while maintaining professional standards

This is a physically active role where safety, teamwork, and attention to detail are essential.

You are motivated to work outdoors, eager to develop your climbing skills, and committed to safety. You bring:

  • A desire to work outdoors in a physically active role
  • A valid U.S. driver's license with a clean DMV record
  • Authorization to lawfully work in the U.S.
  • Willingness to learn and develop skills in:
    • Tree climbing (without spurs)
    • Proper pruning techniques
    • Identifying native and introduced tree and shrub species and understanding their characteristics
    • Tree care safety standards
    • Chainsaw and equipment operation

SavATree was founded 45 years ago with a mission to preserve trees threatened by the gypsy moth epidemic. Since then, we've grown into a nationwide leader in tree, shrub, and lawn care services. Unlike companies that focus on removal, our work is rooted in preservation and care.

We are a values-driven organization built on teamwork, integrity, respect, and a relentless commitment to making a positive impact. When you join us, you'll find a collaborative, competitive, and caring environment where your contributions matter. As we like to say: When you work here, you thrive here.

The physical demands of this role must be met to successfully perform the essential functions of the job. This position requires climbing trees, working at heights, and lifting and/or moving up to fifty (50) pounds regularly.

SavATree is an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Drug-Free Workplace. We are committed to creating a diverse environment where all employees feel valued and respected.
