- Monitor the health and appearance of plants and identify areas that require additional attention.
- Maintain garden beds and landscaped spaces to a high standard of cleanliness, presentation, and horticultural care.
- Assist with landscape installations, renovations, grading, soil preparation, and seasonal projects.
- Support hardscape projects, including lifting, carrying, preparing materials, and laying pavers with care and precision.
- Keep gardens, walkways, entrances, patios, and other outdoor spaces clean and free of plant debris.
- Help curate outdoor spaces through thoughtful plant care, placement, presentation, and attention to how individual landscape elements work together.

- Properly maintain, clean, organize, and store landscape tools and equipment.

What We’re Looking For
- A conscientious individual who takes genuine pride and ownership in their work.
- An appreciation for fine gardening, beautiful landscapes, historic properties, and thoughtful design.
- A strong work ethic, professionalism, dependability, and excellent time-management skills.
- An artistic eye and the ability to recognize proportion, balance, presentation, and opportunities to improve a landscape.
- Strong attention to detail and a willingness to complete work thoroughly and to a high standard.
- A love of working outdoors and a commitment to ensuring plants and landscapes are properly cared for.
- The initiative to notice what needs to be done without always waiting for direction.

The Ideal Candidate
- You care about the difference between simply maintaining a property and truly caring for a landscape.
- You notice the details—an improperly pruned shrub, an untidy garden edge, a plant that is struggling, or an area that could be made more beautiful.
- You take pride in leaving every space better than you found it and understand that exceptional landscapes are created through consistent care, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
- You enjoy being part of a team that takes ownership of its work and shares a commitment to the long-term beauty and stewardship of Round Hill.
