Here’s the deal : we take pride in doing great work for our community — clean, safe, game-ready parks that people notice. That only happens because we have dependable people on our team who show up, work hard, and care about the details.
At The Grounds Guys , we’re more than just “the lawn guys.” We’re a professional team that believes in doing the job right, every time — and we back it with our Done Right Promise .
We’re looking for someone who’s ready to own a key seasonal role : keeping up to a dozen ball diamonds in top condition through the playing season. This is largely independent work, and reliability is everything.
Is this right for you?
If you identify with any of these, we want to talk :
- You’re dependable — you show up and take ownership because the work needs to be done daily.
- You like working independently and take pride in visible results.
- You’re detail-oriented and enjoy leaving a field smooth, level, weed-free, and game-ready .
- You’re comfortable being outdoors and staying productive in changing weather.
- You can coordinate with a broader team when needed, but you don’t need hand-holding to get quality work done.
