Lawn Doctor is looking for an experienced full-time lawn care technician who takes pride in their work.
This is not a spray it and move on job.
Youll eventually take over our highest-density and most important route currently run by the owner. We arent looking for someone to simply maintain it.
We want someone who can make it better.
Who we want
We want someone who does things right even when nobody is watching.
Someone who notices problems pays attention to details takes care of their truck and equipment communicates when something isnt right and knows when to ask instead of guessing.
You also need to be good with people. Our customers should be happy to see you pull up and you should genuinely be comfortable talking with them.
Were looking for someone who actually gives a damn about the quality of their work.
The job
Youll treat residential lawns primarily throughout the Clermont / Oakland area.
For your first 23 months youll work closely with the owner learning the route customers our program products equipment turf issues and standards.
The goal isnt just to run my route. Its to eventually run it better than I do.
A completed stop isnt enough. We expect you to notice weeds insects disease irrigation problems declining turf and anything else that needs attention.
Notice it. Think about it. Communicate it. Help us fix it.
Experience
We are looking for lawn spray/application experience.
You dont need to know every product we use but you should already understand the basics of fertilizers herbicides insecticides fungicides what theyre generally used for and proper application methods.
You should be comfortable:
- Driving and operating a larger spray truck.
- Pulling hose and making applications.
- Mixing/loading and working with spray equipment.
- Understanding rates and coverage.
- Handling basic equipment issues.
Mechanical ability is a big plus. Changing a gauge repairing a hose or fitting replacing a nozzle or troubleshooting a simple equipment problem shouldnt scare you.
Pay & opportunity
$21/hour starting base pay plus performance bonus opportunities.
Youll also earn 10% commission on additional services you recommend that are sold.
Starting in 2027 youll also have the opportunity to earn up to $10000 annually in retention bonuses for exceeding our customer-retention baseline.
If you take ownership of your route and make it better there is real financial upside for doing so.
Non-negotiables
- Valid drivers license and a driving record acceptable to us and our insurance carrier. We pull your Motor Vehicle Record.
- Criminal background check required.
- Drug-free workplace with pre-employment drug testing.
- Able to work outdoors pull hose operate equipment lift about 50 pounds and work independently.
This probably isnt for you if...
Our day starts around 6:306:45 AM and ends when your work is finished. Most days thats before 4:00 PM. Some arent.
If youre constantly watching the clock regularly need to leave early struggle to show up on time or have somewhere you absolutely need to be every afternoon this isnt for you.
If you realize you missed something and doing it correctly means driving 20 minutes back we expect you to go back and finish it.
Your route is your responsibility. Your work gets finished.
This also isnt for you if you rush avoid customers do the minimum ignore problems guess instead of asking hide mistakes or leave your equipment for someone else to deal with.
We dont expect perfection.
We do expect honesty reliability attention to detail improvement and ownership.
When applying stand out
We receive hundreds of applications and most sound exactly the same.
Our application includes several short questions. Take them seriously. We actually read the answers and theyre one of the biggest things we use to decide who gets an interview.
Generic answers will blend in with all the other applications we decline.
You dont need perfect grammar or a long essay.
Give us a reason to notice you.
Finally do not call text email or stop by asking about this job or your application. Hiring communication is handled through our job-posting software so check your messages there.
We will let you know if you are no longer being considered. If you havent heard from us youre still in the running.
Following directions is part of this job. Consider this the first one.
