OVpsUURFSmNmbUNGdjdwZ1dER2pKQT09

Job Description

Horticulture, gardening, or retail nursery experience required. Knowledge of plants and landscaping techniques required. The best candidate will be an energetic, good-natured person. Ideal candidates can educate customers on plant care and identify plants and diagnose problems.

Customer service experience would be a huge plus. You’ll be responsible for greeting customers and helping them find the plants and tools that they need. You'll get a lot of questions about plants, so you’ll need to be able to admit quickly when you don't have the answer and find someone on staff who does! We’re looking for someone who is eager to keep learning.

You’ll be expected to lift, carry, and move heavy items on a daily basis so you’ll need to be strong and fit. You must be able to lift 50 pounds regularly. You’ll move everything from 1 gallon cans to 24” box trees (with a tool!), water plants, load sold merchandise like soils and plants into vehicles, weed and clean the Garden Center grounds, move large plants and pottery, haul plants around Garden Center, and create displays with direction from more experienced staff members. You will spend most of your time outdoors, walking around our two-acre park-like property and helping customers with their gardening needs.

You’ll have a regular schedule. Shifts are between 8:30am-5:30pm six days a week. *Hourly pay scale range $18.00/hr-23.00/hr. Full time employees are eligible for health and dental benefits after 90 days. Van Winden's also offers a simple IRA matching program. All staff members receive an employee discount and may qualify for discretionary seasonal bonuses.

If you have plant and garden experience and a passion for horticulture we’d love to hear from you!
