Lawn Care Technician
£27,250 – £33,250 per year | Full-time | Field-based | Epping / Cheshunt
TopGrass is a growing, environmentally responsible lawn care company. We’re looking for a Lawn Care Technician to join our friendly and supportive team, covering the Epping and Cheshunt area.
This is a hands-on, outdoor role combining lawn care treatments with customer service. Although beneficial, no previous lawn care experience is required full, paid training can be provided.
About the role -
As a Lawn Care Technician, you’ll be responsible for delivering professional lawn treatments while providing a high level of customer service to homeowners. You’ll manage your own daily service route, apply treatments safely, and offer practical advice to customers on lawn health.
We have previously had great success hiring people from delivery driving and other route-based roles. If you enjoy working independently, managing your own schedule, and providing a professional service to customers, your experience could transfer very well to this position.
Key responsibilities -
- Apply lawn care treatments and services to domestic customers
- Deliver excellent customer service at every visit
- Provide basic lawn care advice and recommendations
- Manage daily service routes using a mobile route management app
- Communicate with customers and colleagues via phone, text, and email
- Work in line with company health & safety procedures
What we’re looking for -
- Strong customer service and communication skills
- Comfortable working outdoors in all seasons
- Good computer skills and confidence using mobile apps
- Organised, reliable, and able to manage your own workload
- GCSE English and Maths (or equivalent)
- PA1 & PA6 spraying licences preferred but not essential - training provided
Salary & benefits -
- £27,250 – £33,250 per year, depending on experience
- Commission on work sold and completed
- Paid training and career development
- Company sick pay
- Paid overtime
- Annual leave flexibility and holiday buy-back
- Christmas break scheme (additional time off)
- Wellbeing and financial wellbeing support
- Uniform and work devices provided
- Free annual TopGrass lawn treatments and aeration
- Team building days, competitions, and prizes
Working hours -
We operate an annualised hours system, allowing us to offer additional days off over Christmas and New Year in addition to standard annual leave.
Typical working hours are 7:30am–4:00pm (30-minute break). During our busier periods in April and September, hours may extend to 7:30am–5:00pm, helping balance the additional time off later in the year.
As this is a field-based role, you’ll be required to arrive at your first job by 8:00am.
Driving & travel -
As a field-based role, driving forms part of the day-to-day work and will naturally vary depending on the service route. The majority of routes are planned with efficiency in mind to keep mileage at a reasonable level.
On rare occasions, certain routes may require longer travel distances, including extended round trips, usually due to customer location or seasonal demand. This isn’t a regular occurrence, but we feel it’s important to set clear expectations early on to support long-term job satisfaction
Alternative job titles -
- Gardener
- Grounds Maintenance Operative
- Lawn Treatment Technician
- Horticulture Operative
- Delivery Driver (route-based roles)
- Field Service Technician
Apply today to join a company offering long-term development, strong support, and a role that keeps you active and outdoors.
