Exterior Grounds Maintenance Specialist
Picture your day starting with a quick huddle beside the trucks. The Maintenance Foreman reviews the plan, you load up the gear, and the crew rolls out to a mix of commercial and residential properties. As the morning light hits the turf, you guide a zero‑turn mower in clean, efficient passes, then switch to edging and string trimming for those crisp lines along sidewalks and curbs. Midday, you’re pruning shrubs, weeding beds, and refreshing mulch. Before heading back, you tidy the site, note any concerns for your supervisor, and finish by caring for the equipment—oil changes, blade swaps, cleaning mowers, and washing down trucks and trailers.
