About the Role

- Identify additional work opportunities on each property and report findings to management with photos and notes
- Maintain daily communication with management on job status, issues, and crew performance
- Enforce company appearance standards — all crew members in company-provided uniform at all times
- Conduct pre- and post-job site walkthroughs to ensure quality and completeness
- Document any property damage, client concerns, or safety issues immediately

- Train and mentor crew members on technique, safety, and company standards
Requirements
- 3 years of commercial and residential landscape maintenance experience in a lead or foreman capacity

- Physical ability to perform field labor in outdoor conditions
