ABOUT RYAN LAWN & TREE

Did you know that Ryan Lawn & Tree is a $100M+ professional Lawn & Landscape company? We've built one of the most respected lawn and tree care companies in the Midwest — and serve customers across Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Nebraska.  We're on a mission to raise the bar for our entire industry — attracting exceptional people, treating them right, and doing work that leaves a mark on every community we touch.

ROLE OVERVIEW

As a Production Arborist at Ryan Lawn & Tree, you will partner with a skilled team to cultivate a healthy urban forest, one client property at a time. Our Arborists are trained in the art and science of tree and shrub care—maintaining, improving, and preserving the health of the landscapes we serve. If you love working outdoors and thrive on physical, hands-on challenges, we want to hear from you.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Execute pruning and tree work on client properties, including tree pruning and removal, shrub pruning, mulch installation, and stump grinding
• Collaborate effectively within a team environment while also working independently with efficiency
• Operate small-engine equipment safely and proficiently, including chainsaws, shears, and string trimmers
• Communicate professionally with clients regarding service expectations, processes, and timelines
• Adhere to all safety protocols while working aloft and on the ground

A background in forestry or a related field is a plus, as is prior industry experience.

All candidates must meet the following requirements:

• High School Diploma or GED required
• Strong physical capability, including the ability to lift 50 lbs. and walk 3+ miles per day
