Job description

$500 Hiring bonus for certified Horticulturalists in Canada

We are currently seeking rock star landscapers for our growing company! We are looking for gardeners, landscapers, trimmers, arborists, anyone who loves plants! We need lawn mowers, maintenance workers and garden lovers! LOOKING FOR CREW LEADERS.

Previous work experience in landscaping, horticulture, gardening, or construction.​ Experience safely operating power tools and other maintenance equipment.​ Working phone, with data preferred.

Estimated hours: Monday - Thurs 7-5

Great Lawns & Beyond is one of the fastest growing companies on the North Shore. We provide hardscaping (designing, building), gardening & planting, as well as snow & ice management services to our customers. We take great pride in the work we do and because of this, we are expanding rapidly and adding to our team. We treat our employees and our customers like our business depends on it - because we really be-leaf it does!

Why work with us?

Our team members are a part of our ever-growing (growing like a weed!) family, and once they come here, they tend to stay long term. This is because we have worked hard to build a supportive culture that values working hard and playing hard (after the work is completed to a high standard, of course!). Every Friday, we offer a team barbecue with complimentary food and beverages. We also provide ongoing team building events such as camping, bowling, golfing, paint-balling and go-karting (like we said..work hard, play hard). Alright, so we are fun..that’s great, but who are we looking for to fit into this tight knit team which aims for only the very best team players? Well, we are looking for people with:

  • A driver's license who are comfortable driving pickup trucks. A license is not mandatory but is preferred.
  • Experience with landscaping is preferred.
  • Ability to learn quickly and follow directions.
  • Reliability & time management skills.
  • Efficiency & strong work ethic.
  • A problem solver. We like people who really own their role. We will give you the tools and systems, train you to be successful, and support you. It is expected that you will take problems and solve them, not bounce problems back to managers without providing options and suggestions.
  • Always looking for ways to improve yourself, your team, and the company as a whole. We really appreciate any recommendations or tips you might have from previous experience or otherwise! We try to move and change quickly when systems aren’t working properly.
  • Willing to work with newer employees and eager to develop them and teach them new skillsets because you realize that they are an asset to your team.
  • Ability to lead & motivate others.
  • Driven to grow and learn within the industry and our company.

*Please note: If you don’t like to work hard, aren’t a team player and/or are a negative person, this job isn’t for you. Natural selection will weed these types of candidates out very quickly.

There is not an urgency to fill this role and we will take the necessary time to find the right person for this seat - it is more important for us to ensure it's a right fit for both parties

Benefits we offer:

-Flexible working hours / time off.
-Company truck possibility for foremen
-Possibility of medical benefits
-4% vacation pay
-Year-Round, Full-Time Employment (if wanted).
-Great work-life balance (we don't typically work weekends, evenings or holidays unless you’d like to).
-Career growth potential.
-Performance-based raises.
-Educational opportunities.

If this position sounds like a good fit for you, stop beating around the bush and apply already! Please email your resume with a brief description about yourself and your work experience OR attach a cover letter to your application. If you do not write a description or attach a cover letter, it is unlikely we will respond.

Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you.
