Zero Turn Mower OperatorJob Overview

We are seeking a reliable and experienced Zero Turn Mower Operator to join our growing lawn and landscape company.

Already working as a zero-turn operator but looking for a better opportunity? If you're unhappy with your current position, feel like you've reached a dead end, or simply want an opportunity to grow with a newer company, this could be a great fit.

We are looking for someone who wants more than just another seasonal mowing job. As our company grows, we want dependable people who can grow with us, take on additional responsibility, and become an important part of the operation.

• Assist with leaf removal and seasonal property cleanups
• Assist with snow plowing and snow removal during the winter season
• Perform basic equipment checks and report maintenance or mechanical issues
• Follow assigned routes and complete work efficiently while maintaining our quality standards
• Perform other lawn care, landscaping, and property maintenance duties as needed

Opportunity to Grow

If you're currently operating a zero-turn mower for another company and aren't satisfied with your current position, we encourage you to apply.

This is an opportunity to join a growing company where a dependable and skilled employee can become increasingly valuable as the business expands. We're looking for someone who can start by bringing strong zero-turn mowing skills to the team while also being willing to help with the many other aspects of running a successful lawn and landscape operation.

For the right person, there is an opportunity to take on additional responsibilities and grow into a larger role within the company over time.

If you're experienced on a zero-turn, dependable, willing to work, and looking for a company where you can grow, we'd like to hear from you.
