Commercial Maintenance Manager
Abbotsford, BC | $32–$40/hr | Full-Time
At Sutherland Landscaping, we believe in doing quality work we’re proud of—while building a team where people feel valued, supported, and part of something bigger.
We’re looking for a Commercial Maintenance Manager who brings both horticulture know-how and proven leadership experience. This role is about leading from the front—about 80% of your time will be spent in the field with crews, making sure work is done to a high standard and helping team members grow in their skills.
If you enjoy being hands-on, building strong teams, and caring for both people and properties, you might be a great fit.
What You’ll Do
- Lead crews on-site, set the standard for workmanship, and jump in on tools when needed.
- Support and train staff in all areas of landscape maintenance—mowing, pruning, plant health, seasonal tasks, and equipment use.
- Build relationships with commercial clients and keep them updated on progress.
- Mentor team members through our internal apprenticeship and GROW program.
- Help shape a positive work culture where people enjoy coming to work.
What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years in landscaping, horticulture, or grounds maintenance (commercial experience is a plus).
- 2+ years of leadership or supervisory experience in the green industry.
- Strong communicator who can work well with both clients and crews.
- Able to balance being in the field with managing schedules and operations.
- Passionate about developing people and leading by example.
What We Offer
- $32–$40/hr based on experience and leadership skills.
- Company vehicle (with personal use under our policy).
- Two weeks vacation + paid week off over Christmas.
- Health savings account after one year.
- Opportunities for seasonal bonuses and professional development.
- Monday–Friday, 7:30–4:00 (with some flexibility in peak seasons).
If you want to lead a team, work outdoors, and grow in both horticulture and leadership, we’d love to hear from you.
Apply today and help us keep the Fraser Valley’s landscapes looking their best.
