Professional Tree Care is hiring entry level trainees who would like to become professional Grounds-people. Ideally, after a few years, those Grounds-people will advance to work as tree Climbers. Anyone hired must meet these minimum requirements:

1) Physically fit: able to lift 50 pounds and, once trained, able to hoist him/herself up into a tree using ropes and pulleys. Able to work outdoors in inclement weather year-round, meaning hot in summer and cold in winter. Able to work extremely hard for up to 8 hours per day.

2) Speaks/read/writes in English well but is willing and able to learn Tree Care Spanish (TCS) if you don't already speak Spanish.

3) NOT afraid of heights. Yes, there will be a test.

4) Seeking a career, not a job. To become a good Gounds-person quickly, one must study on their own time. If you have free time in the morning or evenings, this might be a great career for you. Check out ( https://www.isa-arbor.com/) for details on getting your ISA Groundsperson and ISA Tree Climber certifications. These may be required in the future before advancing to the next level.

5) You must have reliable transportation to the job site, which cannot be reached by public transportation, Uber, or bike. We work from Napa to Monterey and Sacramento to the Bay. This position is based in Hayward, CA.

6) A *current and “clean” CA Driver's license is required.* *Clean = no points or recent tickets. Once you become a Climber, you will be given a company truck to drive to the job site so it is required that your do NOT have speeding tickets or accidents on your record.

7) You absolutely MUST live within...
