GROUNDSKEEPER / RURAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE
Monthly retainer, commensurate with experience and scope
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
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
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
