Groundsmen are the foundation of the crew—ensuring climbers can work efficiently and customers’ properties are protected and respected. This is an excellent opportunity for those looking to build a career in tree care. Groundmen learn the fundamentals of arboriculture, safe equipment use, and proper tree care practices. With experience and training, motivated employees can advance from Groundsman into Climber and eventually into leadership positions such as Crew Leader/Foreman.

Property Protection: Safeguard customer property (lawns, gardens, structures, vehicles) from damage during operations.
Communication: Maintain clear and professional communication with climbers and foremen to ensure safe workflow.
Tool & Equipment Care: Perform pre- and post-job inspections, basic maintenance, and report issues with tools or machinery.
Cleanup & Detailing: Ensure each property is left in excellent condition, free of debris, and reflecting professional standards.
Traffic Control: Direct vehicles or pedestrians when necessary to maintain safe working conditions.
Emergency Readiness: Remain alert to hazards and able to respond quickly in case of an incident.
Team Support: Encourage and assist coworkers, fostering a positive and efficient work environment.

Professionalism

Safety Conscious: Always adhere to safety standards, utilize proper PPE, and remain alert on the job site.
Reliable & Punctual: Consistently arrive on time and ready to work with a positive attitude.
Respectful & Professional: Maintain courteous behavior with team members, leadership, and customers.
Strong Work Ethic: Demonstrate initiative and the ability to keep pace with the crew.
Team-Oriented: Support others, take direction well, and contribute to an efficient workflow.

Qualifications

Experience in tree service, landscaping, or outdoor labor preferred, but not required.
Ability to perform physically demanding tasks, including lifting, dragging, and carrying heavy material.
Willingness to work outdoors in all weather conditions.
