Full Job Description

The Landscape Foreman leads our installation team with precision and care, transforming professionally drafted designs into living landscapes that honor both artistry and craftsmanship. This role blends technical expertise with hands-on leadership, ensuring every project reflects our commitment to quality, beauty, and attention to detail. From plan interpretation to crew coordination, the Landscape Foreman guides installations that bring our customers' visions to life.

Role Responsibilities

Leadership & Crew Management

Oversees and directs landscape installation crews, setting the pace that keeps projects moving efficiently while maintaining quality
Supervises team members with clarity, delegating tasks thoughtfully and supporting skill development on the job
Fosters a positive, safety-focused work culture where collaboration and mutual respect are prioritized
Provides hands-on training in installation techniques, equipment operation, and proper plant handling

Landscape Installation & Project Execution

Reads and interprets professionally drafted landscape plans, translating designs into accurate layout and execution on-site
Oversees all aspects of installation including site preparation, grading, plant placement, hardscape coordination, and finishing details
Operates equipment confidently and safely, including skid steers, dingos, and other landscaping machinery
Maintains quality control throughout each project, ensuring work upholds Wilson Plant Co.'s standards for craftsmanship and plant viability
Collaborates closely with designer throughout projects—design-oriented candidates may assist with plan drafting and learn the sales and design process, while horticulture or leadership-focused candidates may develop strengths in operational management and crew development

Operations & Project Management

Manages project timelines and coordinates workflow to ensure installations are completed efficiently and within schedule
Oversees tool and vehicle maintenance, ensuring equipment is safe, functional, and ready for daily use
Monitors materials and plant inventory on active job sites, coordinating with office team on restocking needs
Ensures adherence to safety protocols, job site organization, and proper handling of plants and materials
Communicates with clients, designers, and project managers to align on expectations, progress, and any adjustments needed during installation

Role Qualifications

2+ years of landscape installation experience with proven ability to lead crews and manage projects
Strong understanding of landscape installation work, including plant placement, grading, site preparation, and quality control
Confident operating landscaping equipment such as skid steers, dingos, and other machinery
Ability to read and interpret professionally drafted landscape plans and translate them into accurate on-site execution
Working knowledge of plants, horticulture, and proper installation techniques that support long-term plant health
Valid driver's license with clean driving record (required)
Excellent time management and organizational skills with a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset
Strong leadership presence with ability to work and lead at a strong pace while maintaining quality and safety
Professional communication skills when working with clients, designers, and team members
Availability to work Monday–Friday, 8am–5:30pm/6pm, with occasional Saturday mornings during peak season

What Makes This Role Different

The only lawn you'll mow is at your own house—no maintenance contracts, no snowplowing, just quality installations we're proud of
Year-round employment with greenhouse work in winter—we'll teach you to grow from seeds and cuttings, keeping you working (and learning) all twelve months
Collaborate directly with our design team on every project—grow toward design and sales, or develop your operational leadership chops, your call
Get home before dark, the weekends are mostly yours, and you're working on projects that actually matter instead of churning through cookie-cutter subdivisions
