Pika Landscapes has been creating and maintaining beautiful outdoor spaces in Whistler and beyond for more than 20 years.

If you like working outside and getting your hands dirty, we’d like to talk to you. If you’ve laid pavers and built retaining walls, awesome. If not, we’ll provide the training.

**--- Staff Accommodation may be available ---**

**Job overview**

We have both entry level field staff positions and lead hand roles available for those with landscape construction experience. All Landscape Construction staff are responsible for contributing to all on-site aspects of landscape construction projects as directed by your Foreman.

**Generally speaking**

You’ll perform work as directed by your Foreman on a crew of 2-3 fellow landscapers to build hard and softscapes primarily in Squamish. Sometimes you’ll work on the same job site for several weeks, and other times you may find yourself at multiple job sites each day. Tasks may include:

- Coach, teach and motivate your crew with the aim of improving quality, productivity, safety and morale over time
- Run small jobs, independent of your Foreman supervising a small crew
- Maintain a tidy, well-organized job site and crew truck

**Requirements**:

- An able body that can handle physical tasks all day long. Able to lift 100lb objects, and 50lbs over your head many times throughout the day.
- Carpentry skills are a bonus
- A class 5 driver’s licence in good standing
- Secondary school diploma
- A work visa or permanent residency

For a Lead Hand role
- At least 1 year hands-on experience building landscapes
- Understand most aspects of landscape construction
- Able to operate a laser level, shoot grades and grade sites
- Competent using most hand tools, power tools like plate tampers and cut-off saws, and earth moving equipment like mini-excavators and front end loaders

- You love being outside rain or shine
- You’re self-aware, can take direct feedback and want to grow personally
- You listen well, follow instructions and ask questions when things aren’t clear
- You communicate effectively and proactively
- You’re keen to learn
- You’re accountable and have a mature sense of personal responsibility: you say what you think, make commitments and follow through
- You’re inclined to smile and be polite even when you don’t feel like it. We want our customers to love you.
- You like to have fun. Some days are tough due to foul weather, project surprises, challenging personalities, or difficult work but you’re skilled at modeling fun no matter what.
- You sweat the details. We don’t cut corners and quality is critical.
