Are You a High-Level Tree Climber Who Wants to Grow, Win, and Lead — Not Just Climb?

If yes, keep reading.

All Natural Tree Experts is seeking ONE skilled, motivated, safety-focused Tree Climber to join our high-performance team. We are looking for a professional climber who can handle technical removals, precision pruning, challenging rigging, and high-exposure situations with confidence, composure, and skill.

We don’t hire average. We don’t hire unsafe workers. We don’t hire climbers who “just want hours.”

We hire craftsmen, athletes, and professionals who take pride in excellence, growth, and operating at a superior standard.

WHAT YOU MUST BE ABLE TO DO

  • Communicate clearly with Crew Leaders and groundsmen
  • Work efficiently without sacrificing safety
  • Manage your rope systems, positioning, and cutting angles with precision
  • Prune trees according to proper standards (not “lop and top”)
  • Assess hazards and make intelligent decisions in the moment
  • Adjust rigging and cutting plans when conditions change
  • Maintain gear and ensure it remains compliant, safe, and ready
  • Climb in all weather conditions safely and professionally
  • Stay humble, hungry, coachable, and focused

  • Coachable, open to correction, and always improving
  • able to anticipate problems and think ahead
  • Driven to become a Crew Leader one day
  • Someone who wants to grow within a high-performance company
