ABOUT RYAN LAWN & TREE

Ryan Lawn & Tree has been named one of the top three lawn and landscape companies in the United States. Recognized across the region for our fleet of clean red trucks and a commitment to world-class service, we are rapidly growing and expanding our professional arborist group. At Ryan, we are passionate about more than lush lawns and healthy trees-we are passionate about people.

ROLE OVERVIEW

As a Production Arborist at Ryan Lawn & Tree, you will partner with a skilled team to cultivate a healthy urban forest, one client property at a time. Our Arborists are trained in the art and science of tree and shrub care-maintaining, improving, and preserving the health of the landscapes we serve. If you love working outdoors and thrive on physical, hands-on challenges, we want to hear from you.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Execute pruning and tree work on client properties, including tree pruning and removal, shrub pruning, mulch installation, and stump grinding
• Collaborate effectively within a team environment while also working independently with efficiency
• Operate small-engine equipment safely and proficiently, including chainsaws, shears, and string trimmers
• Communicate professionally with clients regarding service expectations, processes, and timelines
• Adhere to all safety protocols while working aloft and on the ground

Requirements

A background in forestry or a related field is a plus, as is prior industry experience. That said, if you bring a genuine willingness to learn-both on the job and independently-our structured training program will equip you with the skills to succeed. All candidates must meet the following requirements:

• Strong physical capability, including the ability to lift 50 lbs. and walk 3+ miles per day
• Comfort and respect for working at heights; ability to climb and work aloft
• Ability to push and pull objects over extended distances
