A to Z Tree and Turf builds high-end landscape renovation and installation projects for luxury builders, custom homeowners, and HOA communities across the Valley, jobs that run from $250,000 to over $1 million. Our Construction Manager needs a right hand in the field.

If you've run crews on large landscape installs, know how to sequence a job so nothing sits idle, and take it personally when a project falls behind or comes back with a punch list? This is your seat. You'll spend your day on jobsites, not behind a desk.

What You'll Do

Run the jobs in the field

• Serve as the day-to-day field leader on multiple active construction projects, reporting to the Construction/Install Manager
• Walk every active jobsite daily set the plan for the day, confirm crews have what they need, and clear obstacles before they cost a day
• Build and hold the production schedule: sequence grading, hardscape, irrigation, lighting, planting, and finish work so crews and subs aren't stacked on top of each other
• Read plans and specs and make sure what's being built matches what was sold

Lead the foremen and crews

• Direct multiple construction foremen and their crews; set daily expectations and hold the standard
• Verify daily production and time reporting is accurate and turned in
• Train foremen on layout, sequencing, install standards, and safety
• Enforce jobsite safety and keep sites clean, organized, and presentable

Own quality and completion

• Inspect work in progress, don't wait for the walkthrough to find the problem
• Run the punch list to zero and lead the final walk with the Construction Manager
• Confirm irrigation, drainage, and lighting are installed and tested right the first time

Keep the job on plan

• Track labor hours, material usage, and production against the job's budget, and flag variances to the Construction Manager early
• Identify field conditions or scope changes that need a change order, and get them to the Construction Manager before the work is done, not after
• Coordinate material deliveries, equipment, and subcontractor scheduling with the Construction Administrator/Procurement Coordinator
• Verify field conditions and quantities against the estimate at job handoff, and tell the Construction Manager fast when the plan and the dirt don't match

Represent A to Z on site

• You're the face of the company to builders, superintendents, homeowners, and HOA representatives on the jobsite
• Communicate clearly and professionally; elevate client concerns to the Construction Manager rather than letting them sit
• Document progress with photos and daily field reports

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in landscape construction or hardscape installation, including 2+ years leading crews or running jobsites as a foreman, superintendent, or assistant PM
• Experience on landscape renovation/installation projects in the $250K+ range, you've seen what goes wrong on a big job and know how to get ahead of it
• Able to read and work from landscape plans, irrigation plans, grading plans, and specs
• Working knowledge across the trades we self-perform: grading and drainage, hardscape and masonry, irrigation, low-voltage lighting, and planting of trees, shrubs, and turf
• Proven ability to schedule and sequence multiple crews and subs at once
• Valid Arizona driver's license with a clean driving record (trucks and trailers)
• Bilingual English/Spanish strongly preferred, you'll lead Spanish-speaking crews and talk to English-speaking clients on the same walk
• Comfortable with scheduling, photo documentation, and job tracking on a phone or laptop
• Excellent attendance and follow-through, when you say it's handled, it's handled
• Able to be on your feet on active jobsites in Arizona weather throughout the day

Nice to have

• Experience with luxury residential builders or custom home projects
• Familiarity with Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, and Phoenix municipal inspection and HOA approval processes
• Pool, water feature, or outdoor kitchen coordination experience
• Arizona landscape or irrigation certifications

Pay & Benefits

• Depending on experience
• Project performance bonus tied to jobs finishing on schedule and on budget
• Full-time, Monday–Friday, early start; occasional Saturdays during peak build season
• Growth path — this role is built to develop into division leadership as our construction side grows

Why A to Z

We've been building and maintaining landscapes across the Valley since 2010. Our construction division works on some of the best properties in Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, and Phoenix, and we're growing. You'd be joining a company where the owners and management are in the field, decisions get made fast, and good work is noticed.
