As Grand Rapids-based
DJ's Landscape Management gets ready for spring and summer, the company looks to fill several job vacancies with people who have a team spirit and a passion for the industry.
The company is based at 4720 52nd St. SW with satellite operations in Kalamazoo and Holland. Liz Siebert, client care administration, says DJ's has added 14 new corporate office positions in the past two years.
The majority of DJ's clients are corporate and commercial accounts with large green spaces or plantings that need regular maintenance. The company handles everything from landscape design, landscape installations and maintenance, and also provides winter snow removal services.
Right now, DJ's has openings for lawn maintenance crew leaders, landscape maintenance crew leaders, a lawn maintenance supervisor and a client care account manager.
"For the client care account manager, we're looking for someone who can identify different species of trees and tree diseases; possibly someone with a horticulture degree," says Human Resources Recruiter Amanda Roden. "The crew leader positions require someone who can lead a team and who can coach future team leaders. We want people with an upbeat attitude, a get-it-done type of person who will do a great job for our clients and our team."
Siebert says the company has 60 year-round employees, up from 35 in 2008. In that same period of time, she says client accounts for landscape services have increased 57 percent, and there's been 63 percent growth in snow removal clients. DJ's Landscape Management recently added 12,000-square-foot multi-use to its facility to serve as a training center, a recycling yard, a nursery and equipment storage.
