Groundskeeper

Description

Private 40-acre property in Morrison seeking a reliable, independent groundskeeper for year-round maintenance. This is an ongoing retainer role, not a one-off job.

SCOPE:

  • Weekly: mow approx. 1/4 acre of lawn around the residence, edge and blow clean, trim shrubs and overhanging branches
  • Weekly: keep both sides of an unsurfaced driveway corridor neat and clear
  • Monthly: weed-whack fence lines around several sub-acre field enclosures
  • Year-round rolling: maintain approx. 800 yards of creek corridor — weed-whack banks, trim overhanging vegetation, manage debris
  • Routine tree work: pruning, deadwooding, and general canopy management across the property on a scheduled basis
  • Post-storm tree work: clearance of fallen or damaged trees, limb removal, and making safe after weather events
  • Ad hoc reactive work: other weather or incident-driven tasks as they arise
NOT required: ornamental beds and planting (handled separately).

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

  • Experience with rural acreage at elevation in the Colorado foothills
  • Proper equipment: ride-on mower, commercial weed-whacker, chainsaw, and capability for substantive tree work
  • Comfortable working independently — owners travel frequently and are often off-site
  • Consistent, reliable scheduling — not a platform or crew-rotation service
  • Strong communicator who follows instruction and flags issues proactively
  • Fully insured, including for tree work
This is a well-paying anchor account for the right person or small operation. References from comparable rural properties required.

To apply: email a brief description of your experience and relevant equipment. We will respond to all serious enquiries promptly. Site visit available for shortlisted candidates.

Location: Morrison, CO 80465

Compensation: Monthly retainer, commensurate with experience and scope
