Landscape Foreman

Landscape Foreman | $25–$35/hr

Put your landscape experience to work leading your own crew, plant and grade properties into finished spaces you take pride in, and earn steady year-round pay.

-You already know how to run a landscape install.

-Now run your own crew.

-Turn bare ground into finished, planted spaces.

-Take pride in properties you helped transform.

-Earn steady, year-round pay with a growing team.

This is an experienced foreman role. You should already be trained in landscape installation and ready to lead a crew on day one.

What You'll Own

1. Lead a landscape crew (up to two) installing plantings, grading, sod, mulch, and landscape features that transform a property.

2. Turn landscape plans into finished installs, coordinating with designers and getting the details right the first time.

3. Set the standard on site, keeping your crew coordinated, productive, and looking out for one another while running daily truck and equipment prep.

4. Document the job with daily job-site updates so schedules, materials, and progress stay on track.

5. Finish with pride, leaving every site clean, planted, and ready for the client to enjoy.

6. Build the next generation by training and mentoring newer crew members in the craft.

7. Keep clients covered all winter : when the snow flies, you and your crew clear commercial and residential properties. Winter snow response is on-call and can include nights, weekends, and holidays during storm events.

What You Bring

-Proven landscape foreman experience is required. This is not an entry-level or trainee position. You should come in already trained and able to run a crew with minimal oversight.

-Three to five years of landscape installation experience as a crew lead or foreman.

-Working knowledge of plant installation, grading, sod, mulch, and landscape feature installation.

-The ability to read landscape plans and coordinate with designers.

-Strong crew leadership and daily job-site documentation skills.

-A valid driver's license and a clean, insurable driving record.

-The physical ability to be on your feet all day and to lift, carry, and plant materials of 50+ lbs, working outdoors in all seasons.
