About The Position

As a member of our General Tree Care team, you will be part of the backbone of SavATree’s field operations. Your role will focus on providing high-quality tree care services that preserve and enhance the health of our clients’ landscapes. A typical day may include collaborating with crew members to perform pruning, removals, cabling, bracing, and other essential tree care tasks, operating chainsaws, rigging, and other specialized equipment safely and effectively, applying climbing and pruning techniques to maintain tree health and safety, providing excellent service to clients while working on a variety of beautiful properties, and learning and applying proper safety protocols and industry best practices. This role offers hands-on outdoor work with opportunities to build expertise in tree care while contributing to the success of the team. SavATree was founded 45 years ago with a mission to preserve trees threatened by the gypsy moth epidemic. Since then, we’ve grown into a nationwide leader in tree, shrub, and lawn care services. Unlike companies that focus on removal, our work is rooted in preservation and care. We are a values-driven organization built on teamwork, integrity, respect, and a relentless commitment to making a positive impact. When you join us, you’ll find a collaborative, competitive, and caring environment where your contributions matter.
