Field Manager-Enhancements

Good Natured Gardening
Charleston, SC area

Good Natured Gardening is seeking a Field Manager — Enhancements to lead landscape enhancement projects from planning through completion.

This is a hands-on field leadership role—not an office or supervisory-only position. You will regularly work alongside the crew performing landscape enhancement work. When the team is short-handed, a project falls behind, materials need to be moved, or quality needs attention, you are expected to pick up the tools and help get the work done.

Responsibilities

• Plan and coordinate enhancement projects, including labor, materials, equipment, access, and timing.
• Lead projects from sales handoff through final walkthrough and closeout.
• Maintain a reliable two-week production schedule.
• Communicate clearly with clients throughout each project.
• Coordinate material takeoffs, ordering, delivery, and job readiness.
• Inspect work and correct quality issues early.
• Perform hands-on landscape work alongside the crew as needed, including planting, bed preparation, irrigation, grading, hardscape, material handling, and cleanup.
• Step into production work when the crew needs support or a project needs to get back on track.
• Lead, coach, and develop field employees.
• Review active jobs for schedule, quality, labor, materials, revenue, and client risks.
• Escalate significant safety, financial, quality, or relationship concerns promptly.
• Keep project information and job documentation current.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience leading landscape enhancement, installation, or project-based field work.
• Strong client communication and relationship-building skills.
• Ability to organize multiple jobs and crews.
• Practical knowledge of landscape installation and enhancement work.
• Willingness and ability to perform physical landscape work regularly.
• Comfort working outdoors in varying weather conditions.
• A team-first attitude and willingness to lead by example.
• Ability to coach employees in a direct and respectful way.
• Ability to identify quality, safety, schedule, and revenue risks.
• A valid driver’s license and clean driving record are required.
• Ability to travel between job sites throughout the Charleston area.
• Bilingual English/Spanish communication is helpful but not required.

This Role Is a Good Fit If You

• Enjoy being in the field and actively contributing to the work.
• Are comfortable leading with a shovel, rake, saw, or other tools when needed.
• Can balance project coordination with hands-on production.
• Take ownership when challenges arise.
• Communicate clearly with clients and team members.
• Want to help build a strong, dependable enhancement division.

What Success Looks Like

• Jobs are planned thoroughly before crews arrive.
• Crews have the materials, equipment, and instructions they need.
• Clients receive timely, professional communication.
• Quality issues are caught and corrected early.
• Employees receive clear expectations and coaching.
• Projects stay on schedule and are completed to a high standard.
• The Field Manager leads from the front and contributes directly to production.
