🕒 Full Time | Monday-Friday | Permanent
We're looking for an experienced Groundsperson who takes pride in running an efficient, organised and safe work site. We believe a great groundsperson is every bit as important as a great climber. This isn't a role for someone who simply drags brash.
We're looking for someone who understands that the ground operation is what makes a tree team successful. You'll be the person keeping the job moving, supporting the climber, managing the work area and ensuring every site runs smoothly from start to finish.
Whether you're an experienced groundsperson or an ex-climber who's happier keeping the operation running from the ground, we'd love to hear from you.
The Role
Working alongside our climbers and other groundsman, you'll take responsibility for keeping the ground operation organised, efficient and safe throughout the day.
You'll be expected to think ahead, anticipate what's needed and help the whole team work efficiently.
