The Role
As a Team Leader, you’ll be responsible for maintaining commercial landscapes for our key client. With wide open spaces to maintain, it's focussed on mowing with some hands-on horticulture work making sure sites are safe, well presented, and maintained to a high standard. Your days will be active, varied, and outdoors, with early starts that give you back your afternoons.
What your day might include:
- Planning daily tasks and setting the pace for the crew
- Hands-on work including mowing and general horticulture duties
- Ensuring safe work practices and quality standards on every site
- Supporting and mentoring team members as they grow their skills
- Communicating with supervisors and clients to keep sites running smoothly
