About The Position

Become the Lawn Detective Homeowners Can't Live Without. Some people see a struggling lawn. You see a mystery waiting to be solved. You know that the right diagnosis, the right application, and the right care can turn a problem property into a neighborhood showpiece — and you take real pride in making that happen. At Ryan Lawn & Tree, we're looking for a Turf Trainee who's ready to be both a skilled technician and a trusted advisor — the person homeowners call when their lawn needs saving and the person who delivers results that actually last.

Responsibilities

  • Own your route. Manage a route of 400–500 customers, delivering consistent, high-quality service on every visit.

  • Deliver the full package. Complete turf bid requests, fertilization applications, aeration, seeding, and service calls across your customer base.
  • Be the expert. Develop a thorough knowledge of turfgrass practices as well as all other Ryan services so you can be a true resource for your customers.
  • Build relationships. Provide excellent account management and customer service — earning the trust of homeowners who take pride in their outdoor spaces.
  • Work hard, together. Thrive independently on your route while also being a strong contributor to the team.
