Welcome To Christine's Touch Gardening Ltd. - Applying For The A+ Crew Member Position

Looking for…

People who would rather work outdoors more often than sit behind a desk. Those who like to get their hands in the dirt and who love how their bodies feel after moving their muscles all day in the beautiful sunshine (or rain!). Working alongside others to accomplish projects is energizing to you and stepping back from a landscape that you just had a hand in beautifying gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Come have a look at our socials and consider joining us for our 2022 season if this sounds like you.

Working at Christine’s Touch…

Ask our team what it’s like to work here. They'll tell you that we:

Show up. We bring our whole selves – our best selves – to work each day, and we trust each other to do the same. We back each other up and trust that each other are doing the absolute best we can. The trust that we have built with you and that you have built with your team will lead to the autonomy to run your route, make decisions, and solve problems. You’ll use your intelligence and your creativity knowing that others will back you up.
Work Smart. We’re professional and organized – it’s easy to do a great job when the basics of schedule, route, and administration run like clockwork. You’ll spend time on the tasks that matter.
Take Care. We care about the well-being of our team members – we create a healthy and safe work environment. We keep vehicles and tools in great condition and do daily safety checks. Together we ensure everyone goes home safe and sound.

The Details…

We are looking to round out our team for 2022. Full time is ideal though, there is space for flexibility with CTG and can always be discussed.

The season runs from the last week in March to the first week of December. Many of our staff take January and February to travel and rest.

Our wages are competitive, with flexibility for seasoned candidates. On top of a fair wage ($18 base rate up to $30 leader), we offer:

Employees receive monthly contributions to a Health Savings Account after 3 months of employment. Eligible medical expenses including paramedical (chiropractor, RMT, etc.), dental, and prescription drug costs can be reimbursed from this account.

Weekly pay schedule.
No weekend hours required.
Investments into your personal and professional growth through mentorship, apprenticeship sponsorships, and continuing education and training.
Paid travel time between the yard and job sites.
Discounts at Mark’s Work Warehouse and other industry-associated retailers and a subsidized uniform.
Working every day in some of the nicest residential gardens Toronto has to offer.

Who are we looking for…

The most essential qualifications are an eagerness to be helpful, a sense of humility, and the desire to learn from others. An up-to-date vaccination schedule is required. In addition, these qualifications will help you stand out:

Experience working long hours in a physically demanding role. Physical fitness, strength, and agility is an asset.
