    • Visit job sites to ensure work aligns with company standards and project expectations
    • Maintain strong relationships with clients to encourage repeat business and referrals
    • Assist with daily crew operations when needed, including supporting field work during absences, delays, or warranty tasks
    • Participate in snow operations to support year-round work opportunities

    • Strong knowledge of hardscape construction methods and materials
    • Solid plant identification skills and understanding of New England plant material and care
    • Experience with irrigation installation/service and snow operations estimating is a plus
    • Proven ability to manage and train crews or field staff
    • Strong communication skills (verbal and written)
    • Proficiency in Microsoft Office
    • CAD or similar design software experience required
    • Valid driver’s license required
    • DOT Health Card required or ability to obtain
