Job Description: Landscaping & Lawn Care Professional
Updated and available as of 6/18/2010

Busy Bee Lawn Care of Columbia was founded on old fashioned principles that have helped build on our success. We do exceptional work at a moderate price and employ hard working, upstanding people that reflect this high standard. We have grown to be one of the middleweight companies serving Greater Columbia, S.C. We will continue to grow and we look forward to having you grow with us.

The position available calls for an individual who can (on their own with no supervision) do an exceptionally high quality lawn mowing and detailing service on various residential and commercial properties as well as various landscaping projects. A Lawn Mowing Service, as defined by the standards set forth by Busy Bee Lawn Care, in brief is defined as mowing the lawn to the proper height, weed eating and edging where appropriate, and blowing all hard tops, porches, and patios. This staff member would be expected to maintain an acceptable level of output where their routes are concerned as well as assist in any duties assigned by the general manager of Busy Bee Lawn Care including laying sod, gopher duties, spreading mulch, spreading sand, loading wood from tree jobs and other general labor tasks that we may take on.

Qualifications (please do not apply if you do not have these qualifications):

1. Must have a good driving record - you will be given a company truck to drive.

2. Must be clean cut, with freshly laundered clothing and satisfactorily representative of The Busy Bee Lawn Care Image. A set of company t-shirts will be issued.

3. Must have a sense of completion on the tasks at hand delivering to the customer a well done, professional lawn service or landscaping job

4. Must have adequate prior experience in lawn detailing (particularly edging with a weed eater), landscaping (particularly sod installs, mulch, straw), seeding, irrigation repair and installation and fertilization

5. Must be capable of quickly and effectively communicating by text message. A company BlackBerry may be issued in the near future.

6. We have a strong anti-drug policy – no illegal drug use or lack of sobriety will be tolerated

Outlook:

We are looking for candidates who would commit to long term employment with Busy Bee Lawn Care, growing with us and helping us build and retain our customer base. The work is seasonal, peaking in the summer months, and winding down through fall (with fall cleanup jobs). January and February are very slow months. No matter what season, there is no guarantee as to quantity of hours that you will be given although preference will be given to more experienced and skilled staff.

The work is often hot in the summer and cold in the winter and dusty at times but the benefit of working outdoors at a moderate pace and enjoying the pride of a job well done far outweigh the challenges. We maintain a friendly and welcoming work environment with a camaraderie that most have found to be fulfilling and long lasting.

Hours of Service:  Exact hours vary but remain between 7am and 5pm Monday through Friday, Saturdays optional. Weather permitting

Salary:  This position starts at $15/hour and the current hour volume for this position is 30+ hours per week.
