Job description

Experienced Irrigation Technicians only, please. Relevant irrigation experience is a must for this position.

If you’re an experienced irrigation technician who enjoys working outdoors, solving problems, and having a job where every day is different, we want to hear from you.

Mustang Landscape is growing, and we’re adding to our team this fall. We are looking for an experienced Irrigation Technician. This is a hands‑on, varied role focused on residential irrigation, with opportunities to work across landscape construction, planting, equipment operation, and other areas of the landscape industry.

You won’t be doing the same thing every day. One day you might be troubleshooting an irrigation system, the next you could be installing a new system, completing a seasonal service, operating equipment, or helping with a landscape construction project. The variety keeps the work fresh and gives you the opportunity to continue building your skills.

Because you’ll often be working independently in the field, you need to be confident diagnosing irrigation issues, making decisions, and completing work without constant supervision. We’re looking for someone who knows their way around irrigation and can take ownership of their work.

We work on some of Greater Victoria’s most beautiful residential properties and take pride in quality workmanship, problem‑solving, and doing things right.

What You’ll Do

• Independently install, repair, troubleshoot, and maintain residential irrigation systems
• Diagnose irrigation issues and determine practical, efficient solutions
• Perform irrigation start‑ups, adjustments, seasonal maintenance, and winterization blowouts
• Work independently in the field while communicating effectively with the team
• Operate power tools and equipment for trenching, installation, and landscape construction
• Use hand tools for detailed irrigation repairs and adjustments
• Assist with landscape construction and planting projects when required
• Operate small landscaping equipment safely and effectively
• Work on a variety of properties and projects throughout the season
• Maintain a high standard of workmanship and professionalism
• Provide excellent service when working on client properties

What We’re Looking For

• Relevant irrigation experience is required. This is not an entry‑level position.
• Minimum 1 year of hands‑on irrigation installation and maintenance experience
• Experience troubleshooting and repairing residential irrigation systems
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of irrigation work in the field
• Strong mechanical aptitude and confidence using power and hand tools
• Strong troubleshooting and problem‑solving skills
• Able to assess an issue, determine a solution, and get the job done without constant direction
• Positive attitude and willingness to continue learning
• Reliable, hardworking, and able to work as part of a team when projects require it
• Strong attention to detail and pride in your work
• Landscape construction or horticulture experience is a strong asset
• Customer service experience is an asset
• Physically capable of lifting, bending, digging, and working outdoors in varying weather conditions
• Valid BC Class 5 Driver’s Licence required, with the ability to drive a company pickup truck

Why Mustang?

Because you won’t be stuck doing the same thing every day.

This is a great fit for someone who already knows irrigation and wants a role with variety, independence, and room to keep learning.

You’ll work on different properties, encounter different challenges, and have the opportunity to build your skills beyond irrigation through exposure to landscape construction, planting, equipment, and other aspects of the industry.

We value people who take pride in their work, think for themselves, solve problems, and are always looking to learn something new.

Mustang is a COR Certified, Living Wage Employer and an award‑winning landscape company, recognized for excellence in landscape design and project construction.
