Build More Than Landscapes.
Are you passionate about working outdoors but frustrated by seasonal layoffs, inconsistent hours, and limited opportunities for advancement?
True North Landscape Group is a growing division of True North Management focused on providing professional landscape design, landscape maintenance, hardscape installation, and exterior property services throughout the Alexandria Lakes Area.
We are seeking a motivated and dependable Landscape Crew Member to join our growing team.
This is more than a seasonal landscaping job. Our goal is to provide year-round employment, allowing team members to work in landscaping during the spring, summer, and fall while transitioning into property maintenance, renovations, and property improvement projects during the winter.
We're building careers—not simply filling positions.
About True North Landscape Group
True North Landscape Group is a new division of True North Management, a growing full-service property management company serving the Alexandria Lakes Area. True North manages residential, commercial, and vacation rental properties while providing services including maintenance, renovations, cleaning, leasing, and property operations.
As our landscape division continues to grow, we're building a professional team focused on quality workmanship, communication, accountability, training, and continuous improvement.
Why True North Landscape Group Is Different
Year-Round Employment
One of the biggest challenges in the landscaping industry is seasonal employment. Rather than laying off team members when the landscaping season ends, we provide opportunities to transition into property maintenance, renovations, and improvement projects through True North Management.
Our goal is to provide consistent employment, income, and opportunities for long-term career growth.
A Team You Can Trust
Every True North team member undergoes a professional screening process that includes:
- Criminal background check
- Drug screening
- Reference verification
- Professional evaluation
We believe professionalism and accountability are important both within our team and when working on our customers' homes and properties.
Training & Development
You don't have to know everything on day one.
We are committed to providing ongoing training, mentorship, and hands-on learning opportunities. Team members will have opportunities to develop skills in landscaping, hardscaping, equipment operation, property maintenance, customer service, and more.
As you develop your skills and demonstrate leadership, there are opportunities to advance within the company.
Better Systems & Structure
We're building a landscape company that operates differently.
We continually work to improve our communication, training, safety, project management, equipment maintenance, and customer experience.
We believe employees perform at their best when they have clear expectations, good systems, and a team that supports them.
