Job Description

Work hard. Be respected. Go home proud. Be part of a great culture!


Mowing Technician

Full-Time | Starting pay $20.00/hr. (DOE) + performance bonuses + room to grow


If you’re working hard but feel like you’re just “cutting grass” with no appreciation or opportunity to grow, this could be your next step.


We believe mowing is more than running a machine—it’s craftsmanship. Clean lines. Sharp edges. Professional finish work. When done right, it transforms a property.


This isn’t just a mowing job—it’s an opportunity to develop real skills, operate professional equipment, and take pride in visible results every single day.


What We Believe

Great employees thrive when they have:

Clear expectations
Reliable hours and fair pay
Leadership that communicates
Training that builds confidence
A team that respects each other


We don’t micromanage.
We don’t cut corners.

And we don’t treat our team like replaceable labor.


Why People Choose to Work With Us

Steady, full-time/seasonal work with consistent scheduling
Paid training — no experience required, we’ll teach you
Modern, well-maintained commercial equipment
Outdoor, hands-on work (no desk job)
Visible results — you see your work immediately
Advancement opportunities as skills grow
Team environment where effort is recognized


If you enjoy working outside, operating equipment, and stepping back to admire a job done right, you’ll fit in here.


What You’ll Be Doing

Operating commercial zero-turn and walk-behind mowers
String trimming and detailed edging for a clean, sharp finish
Blowing off sidewalks, driveways, and patios
Following route schedules efficiently and safely
Performing routine equipment checks and basic maintenance
Keeping trucks and trailers organized and professional
Communicating respectfully with customers when needed
Representing the company with pride and professionalism


You’ll work independently at times—but you’ll always have leadership support behind you.


Who We’re Looking For

We care less about your resume and more about your work ethic.


You’ll do well here if you are:


Reliable and punctual
Willing to learn and improve
Detail-oriented and take pride in clean work
Comfortable working outdoors in heat and changing weather
A team player with a positive attitude


Requirements:


Ability to lift 50+ lbs
Valid driver’s license with clean driving record
Comfortable working outdoors in varying weather conditions
Experience operating lawn equipment is a plus—but not required
