Job description

Tired of Landscaping Jobs That Don’t Lead Anywhere?

You’re not new to this. You’ve worked in landscaping, and you love the physical work, the satisfaction of seeing what you built, and the challenge of creating something lasting. But you’re looking for more than just a job – you want a future.

At Creative Roots Landscaping, we get it. That’s why we don’t just offer paycheques – we offer a pathway to leadership, stability, and even ownership.

Why This Role Might Be Right for You

You have a couple of seasons under your belt and plan to stay in landscaping.
You enjoy physical, outdoor work and seeing the tangible results of your effort.
You’ve thought about starting your own business, but want to avoid the stress of admin, hiring, and finding clients.
You value structure, mentorship, and opportunities to grow your skills.
You want to be part of a high-performing team that takes pride in what they do — and actually enjoys working together.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Landscape Construction Apprentice, you’ll support our construction crews on high-end custom residential projects. Tasks may include:

Site prep and layout
Installing paving stones, natural stone, walls, and water features
Building decks, pergolas, fences, and other wood/metal structures
Grading, soil placement, planting, and sod installation
Drainage, irrigation, and lighting systems
Operating mini-excavators, compactors, and loaders

What’s In It for You

Career Growth: Clear path from Apprentice to Foreman in as little as three seasons, with ongoing mentorship and leadership development.
Compensation: Competitive pay based on experience, with room to grow quickly for the right person.
Culture: Guided by our Core Values , we’re a supportive, professional, and fun team that values craftsmanship, innovation, and collaboration.
Seasonal Stability with Opportunity:While year-round work isn’t guaranteed, our construction teams typically stay busy through December (weather depending). In the winter, there are chances to help with equipment maintenance, shop prep, or snow services — if you’re keen and conditions allow. Some team members also use this time to rest, travel, or enjoy Big White.
Shared Success:For those who demonstrate leadership, drive, and a commitment to company growth — we offer a real opportunity to become a shareholder. Several of our construction team members now own a stake in the company. It’s not a guarantee — it’s an earned path.

What We’re Looking For

At least 2 years of hands-on landscaping or construction experience
A strong work ethic and commitment to doing things right the first time
Positive attitude and team mindset
Valid BC Driver’s License with clean abstract
Willingness to learn, grow, and help others do the same

We believe great work deserves great rewards . As part of our team, you’ll enjoy:

Competitive Pay: $24‒$28/hour based on your skills, value, and attitude.
Overtime Pay: Every extra effort is recognized and compensated.
Profit Sharing: When we win, you win — our gainshare system rewards high performance.
Health Benefits after 3 months: Extended coverage for you and your family.
Ownership opportunity: For those who lead, grow, and build the company — we offer a real path to become a shareholder.
Team Events: From company BBQs to golf tourneys, we make time to celebrate and have fun together.

Ready to Build Your Career With Us?

If you want to do meaningful work, with a solid crew, in one of the most beautiful places in Canada — and be part of a company that invests in your future — we’d love to meet you.
