What You’ll Do:
As a Crew Leader, you’ll be responsible for leading and working alongside your crew to complete landscaping projects throughout Montgomery County.
Your responsibilities may include:
- Lead a small landscaping crew in the field
- Organize the crew’s daily work and keep everyone productive
- Work alongside the crew rather than simply directing from the sidelines
- Perform and oversee mowing, trimming, pruning, mulching, planting, cleanups, and other landscape work
- Operate and safely use landscaping equipment
- Make sure work is completed according to BAM’S quality standards
- Keep projects moving efficiently and communicate problems to management
- Communicate with the office regarding job progress, materials, scheduling, and customer issues
- Communicate professionally with customers when needed
- Help train newer and less-experienced crew members
- Maintain and properly use company equipment and vehicles
- Keep job sites clean, organized, and professional
- Complete basic daily job documentation using a smartphone/tablet
- Help identify opportunities for additional work when appropriate
We’re Looking For Someone Who:
- Has previous landscaping experience
- Has experience leading a crew or is ready to take the next step into leadership
- Can confidently operate common landscaping equipment
- Can organize a day’s work without constant supervision
- Can keep a crew productive while maintaining a positive working environment
- Takes pride in quality workmanship
- Is dependable and consistently shows up on time
- Can communicate clearly with management, coworkers and customers
- Is willing to teach and help develop other employees
- Can make good decisions in the field
- Wants a long-term position with an opportunity to grow
We’re looking for someone who can actually work alongside the crew and lead by example — not someone who wants to sit on the sidelines and give orders.

This is a year-round position for the right employee, with seasonal changes in the type of work performed.

- Previous landscaping experience required
- Crew leadership experience preferred
- Valid Maryland driver’s license and acceptable driving record required
- Reliable transportation to our Kensington-area location
- Ability to safely operate landscaping equipment
- Ability to work outdoors in hot, cold and wet weather when conditions are safe
