About The Position

We’re hiring Commercial Landscapers to do the hands-on work that keeps our commercial properties looking their best across the NYC metro. Working as part of a field crew under a foreman’s direction, you’ll handle the planting, pruning, mowing, cleanups, and seasonal work our clients count on — at the quality standard Cambridge is known for. This is a great entry point into a company where people build long careers. Show up, work hard, and take pride in your sites, and there’s real room to grow into senior crew, foreman, and specialized roles. Additional work during October, November, December and January for Holiday décor installation and breakdown. This work does require long hours each week.

Requirements

A reliable, hardworking attitude — no prior experience required. We’ll train the right person, and previous landscaping, grounds, or outdoor labor experience is a plus.
Dependable and punctual, with a reliable way to get to our Long Island City warehouse for early-morning starts.
Able to lift 50+ lbs repeatedly and work outdoors in all seasons and conditions — standing, bending, kneeling, and doing repetitive tasks throughout the day.
Comfortable using (or learning to use) hand and power landscaping equipment safely.
Able to follow written and verbal instructions and work well as part of a crew.
At least 18 years old and legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Nice To Haves

A valid driver’s license is a plus, but not required.
NYS DEC Commercial Pesticide Technician certification — especially Category 3A (Ornamentals, Shade Trees & Turf).
Experience operating commercial landscape equipment (riding and walk-behind mowers, trimmers, blowers, hedge trimmers).
Irrigation experience.
Masonry and hardscape experience.
Commercial Driver’s License (CDL).
Bilingual (English/Spanish) — a strong plus on a busy crew.

Responsibilities

Mow, edge, plant, prune, weed, mulch, water, and keep beds and grounds clean and healthy across our commercial sites.
Handle spring and fall cleanups, leaf removal, seasonal planting rotations, and snow and ice work when the weather calls for it.
Operate mowers, trimmers, blowers, hedge trimmers, and hand tools safely, following all safety rules at all times.
Take direction from your foreman, work efficiently, and complete each task to Cambridge’s quality standard.
Help load and unload the truck, keep the work site and equipment clean, and report any equipment problems.
Pitch in, communicate with your team, and be a dependable second set of hands wherever you’re needed.
Treat every client site with care and leave it cleaner than you found it.
