Full Job Description

Horticulturist / Gardener

Full-Time | St. Louis Area | Year-Round Opportunity with Snow Removal

Love plants? We'd love to talk.

We're looking for a Horticulturist / Gardener who knows plants, enjoys working outdoors, and wants to see the results of their work every day.

This is a hands-on horticulture role with the opportunity to lead and work alongside landscape crews while caring for beautiful, high-profile properties throughout the St. Louis area.

You'll work with native plants, perennials, seasonal color, trees, shrubs, and established garden spaces. We're looking for someone who can look at a plant and recognize when something isn't right, understand what it needs, and take action.

If you studied horticulture, plant science, or a related field and want a career that gets you out from behind a desk, this could be a great fit. A degree is helpful, but hands-on horticultural knowledge and experience matter just as much.

What You'll Do

Lead and work alongside crews to maintain healthy, beautiful landscapes
Provide hands-on care for native, perennial, seasonal, and ornamental plantings
Monitor plant health and identify stress, disease, pests, nutrient deficiencies, and other concerns
Determine the right care and treatment based on plant needs and seasonal conditions
Properly prune and maintain trees, shrubs, perennials, and other plant material
Plant and maintain seasonal, native, and perennial plants
Weed, mulch, edge, deadhead, divide, and maintain garden beds
Apply fertilizers and soil amendments based on plant needs
Monitor watering needs, soil conditions, and overall growing conditions
Guide crews on proper horticultural practices and help ensure work meets quality standards
Take ownership of the health, appearance, and details of assigned landscapes
Identify horticultural concerns and opportunities for improvement before they become bigger issues
Communicate property needs and recommendations with Account and Operations Managers
Safely operate and maintain gardening and landscape equipment
Keep gardens and green spaces clean, healthy, and looking their best
Jump in alongside the team to complete the landscape work needed to keep properties at their best
Assist with snow and ice removal during the winter months
Follow company safety standards and horticultural best practices
Perform other duties as assigned

What We're Looking For

You don't need to check every box. We're looking for someone with a strong foundation in horticulture who is excited to continue learning and growing.

We'd love to see:

Experience or education in horticulture, plant science, gardening, native landscaping, grounds management, or a related field
Strong knowledge of plants and how to care for them
Knowledge of native and regional plant material
Ability to identify common plant health issues, including pests, disease, environmental stress, and nutrient deficiencies
Understanding of pruning, planting, soil health, fertilization, and seasonal plant care
Interest in native plants and sustainable horticultural practices
Confidence leading and working alongside a crew
Strong attention to detail and pride in your work
Ability to work independently and make decisions in the field
Good communication skills and a team-first attitude
Willingness to work outdoors throughout the year

A bachelor's degree in horticulture, plant science, landscape horticulture, or a related field is preferred but not required. Relevant experience and demonstrated plant knowledge are highly valued.

What Your Day Could Look Like

One day you might be pruning and evaluating plant health. Another could include leading a crew through seasonal garden maintenance, identifying why a group of plants isn't thriving, planting new material, or making sure a high-visibility garden looks its best.

You'll get to work with plants, solve problems, lead people, and see the impact of your work.

Schedule & Year-Round Opportunity

This is a full-time position in the St. Louis Metro area.

Typical hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with some flexibility based on seasonal and property needs. Occasional overtime, evening, or weekend work may be required.

Horticultural work changes with the seasons. Team members who participate in snow and ice removal during the winter can continue working year-round.

Physical Requirements

This is an active outdoor career. You should be comfortable:

Standing and walking for extended periods
Bending, kneeling, reaching, twisting, and performing repetitive movements
Using hand tools and powered landscape equipment
Lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling up to 25 pounds regularly
Working outdoors in changing temperatures and weather conditions

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

Ready to Grow Your Career?

If you're passionate about plants and want a career where you're outside, leading a team, solving problems, and making spaces better, we'd love to meet you.

Bring your horticulture knowledge. We'll give you the opportunity to put it to work.
