Want a career where you can build real skills, work with customers, and grow with a company where your work helps you too? Barnes, Inc. is hiring an entry-level Landscape Designer. We'll train the right person-especially someone who has some hands-on experience installing landscapes and is ready to learn the design side.

Because we're 100% employee-owned, every role matters. When the company does well, it benefits the employee-owners who make it happen.

What you'll do (and learn)

You'll meet with customers, visit job sites to take photos and measurements, and help create landscape plans and customer-ready presentations. You'll keep projects organized, communicate design details to our teams, and review project daysheets daily to stay on top of progress and follow-ups.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who brings the basics-and wants to grow:

  • Some field experience installing landscapes (beds/planting, mulch, edging, basic layout, etc.)

  • Comfortable with Microsoft Office 365 (Outlook, Word, Excel)

  • Friendly, professional communication (you'll work with customers)

  • Organized and reliable with strong follow-through

  • Able to do basic math (measurements/quantities)

  • Valid driver's license + ability to lift/move up to 50 lbs

  • Willingness to learn, take coaching, and grow your skills

Nice to have (not required): AutoCAD, plant identification, additional landscaping experience.

Winter requirement (important)

This is a year-round role and includes snow removal during winter weather events. Snow work can include early mornings, nights, weekends, and holidays as needed. During winter, landscape/design work may be limited to up to ~30 hours/week, with remaining hours assigned to snow and other winter work.

Why Barnes?

  • 100% Employee-Owned (ESOP) - your work helps build long-term value for employee-owners

  • Paid training and a clear path to grow your skills

  • Full-time, year-round stability

  • Overtime may be available/required based on workload (including peak season and snow events)
