- Read and execute plans, layouts, and work orders; set the day’s plan and keep the crew moving.
- Operate and direct use of equipment (skid steer, tampers, saws, trenchers, etc.) safely and efficiently.
- Ensure quality control: correct grades, clean lines, tight edges, proper plant spacing, safe and tidy jobsite.

- Train and coach crew members on productivity, safety, and workmanship.
- Complete basic daily paperwork: time, materials used, photos, and job notes.

- Strong working knowledge of grading, drainage, sod, planting, and basic irrigation repairs.
- Able to read simple plans, measurements, and elevations (tape measure, laser level/string line).
- Comfortable running or learning small equipment (skid steer, walk-behind trencher, plate compactor).
- Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation to the shop.
- Able to work outdoors in Florida heat, lift 50 lbs, and be on your feet most of the day.
