GROUNDSKEEPER

Balance of Nature • St. George, UT

29d • $18 - $21 • Onsite

About The Position

We are seeking a dedicated, detail-oriented, and self-motivated individual to take ownership of the upkeep and beauty of our family property. This is not a traditional landscaping gig; we are looking for a long-term partner who treats our grounds and equipment as if they were their own. This is a W-2 employee position; we are not seeking contractors or landscaping companies.

As our Private Groundskeeper, you will be a vital part of our daily operations, ensuring the property is pristine, functional, and well-maintained. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys working outdoors, takes pride in craftsmanship, and thrives in a quiet, private environment. This person will also be assisting with livestock care when needed and supporting basic barn or farm tasks as needed.

THE "WHY"

Ownership: You won’t just be following a checklist; you will be the eyes and ears of the property.

Stability: We are looking for a permanent addition to our family ecosystem.

Growth: This role starts at 20 hours per week with the possibility of a transition into a full-time position as property needs evolve.

Requirements

• Minimum 2+ years in landscaping, facility maintenance, or a "handyman" role.
• Ability to walk the property, identify what needs to be fixed, and execute without constant supervision.
• Since this is a split-shift role, consistent punctuality is a must.
• Ability to work outdoors in various weather conditions and lift up to 50 lbs.
• Must pass a background check and drug screening, as you will be working closely with a private family.

Responsibilities

• Perform basic upkeep on property tools.
• A 1-hour evening check to ensure gates are secure, livestock/animals are settled (if applicable), and the property is ready for the night.
