Your Role:

As part of a team, you will work with others to plan and execute the work required to grow healthy, high quality trees and shrubs in greenhouse plugs, broadcast trays and pots. Once the plan is set, you may find yourself working independently to execute the plan or leading a team to accomplish key tasks. There is a lot of variety during the growing season, but some key duties will include:

Seeding of all tree, shrub and perennial seedlings either in broadcast trays or jiffies for use on the nursery and for sale, or for potting
Up-potting of trees and shrubs from bareroot, broadcast trays and jiffies
Caring for all potted and greenhouse stock throughout its lifecycle including fertilizing, irrigation, weeding, pruning, thinning, spraying, sorting and all other activities to ensure a quality product that meets required standards
Inventory management - Accurate counting and mapping of all greenhouse and potted stock including stage of development as directed
Hoop house maintenance, including the irrigation system, and seasonal winter plastic installation and removal
Packaging of greenhouse products for shipment and delivery
Fall packing of stock for cold storage
Customer service – picking and packing orders accurately with quality product and on time for pick-up or delivery
Daily cleaning and proper storage of trays, vehicles, tools and equipment and maintaining a clean and organized work environment that is safe and efficient

Are you up for the challenge?

In order to succeed in this position, you will possess training, knowledge and experience in the relevant tasks mentioned above:

You have an interest in native species of trees, shrubs and perennials as demonstrated by a degree or diploma in forestry or horticulture or previous work experience. 1-3 years experience in a nursery or greenhouse setting is preferred;
Ability to work full time hours with some variations to schedule due to weather and workload (early starts due to heat, longer hours during the busy season, time off due to inclement weather)
Ability to regularly work weekends as well as a flexible work schedule to accommodate either production needs or climatic conditions.
You are physically capable of doing the duties identified and repeatedly lifting products weighing up to 25kg
Ability to work in various climatic conditions including rain, heat and cold
Willing to follow all appropriate laws and nursery policies
G class license with clean driving record
Experience operating a forklift, UTVs and trucks is preferred

We occasionally run 10 hour shifts and/or 6 day weeks in order to cover operations Monday to Saturday and some Sundays. Start times are 8am in spring and fall and shift to 7am to reduce staff’s exposure to the heat during Summer months.
