• Physically fit and happy to work outdoors in all seasons
• Reliable, punctual, and professional with strong communication skills
• Team‑oriented but also capable of working independently
• Non‑smoking / non‑vaping, in line with our company policy
• Proud of your work and always aiming for the highest standards
