Sales Arborist

Description:

Sales Arborist

We’re Timberscapes Inc., a local tree removal and maintenance company rooted in York Region and the Lake Simcoe area. We’re looking for a Sales Arborist to join our team and help drive growth through clear, honest estimating and strong client relationships.

This role is all about connecting with people, understanding their needs, and helping them make informed decisions about their trees.

Who We Are

At Timberscapes, we specialize in tree removal, planting, pruning, fertilizing, maintenance, and more. We care about our community and the environment, and we’re proud of the work we do.

We also value team culture, breakfast meetings and post-work barbecues are part of how we stay connected and keep things fun.

THE VALUES you’ll need to be in line with: We have 5 that build our foundation!

SAFETY: The dangers of tree work are plenty, however through thoughtful planning and mitigation these dangers can be minimized. It is our responsibility to prevent injury to ourselves, our customers, and those we work alongside at all times. We ensure all our employees are trained to handle all the equipment they use and work in a safe manner.

QUALITY: We strive to always complete things to the best quality standard, within the parameters of the project. If we are not able to produce this quality it is our duty to seek guidance in order to improve. Our clients have trusted us with their projects and they shall receive our best. When we leave a job site, we look back at our work with pride. Clients always comment on our quality of work.

LEAN: At Timberscapes we adhere to the saying “smarter not harder”. Team members shall at all times be striving to produce the most efficient work possible through dynamic organizational practices and stellar time management skills.

GRIT: This is a super important value for us because it is the driver of achievement and success. Grit is independent of, and beyond, what talent and intelligence contribute to our day too day at Timberscapes. Being naturally smart and talented are great things, but to truly do well and thrive, we need the ability to push through and persevere through many aspects of our daily tasks. Without grit, our talents may be nothing more than unmet potential.

LEARN: Much like the trees we care for, from the moment we are put here on earth we begin to grow and to evolve. A hunger to seek knowledge is something that should be engrained in us all and this will fuel our future. The costs of education can be high, however the cost of being uneducated is far greater. Our continuous growth ensures all labour is profitable even if only through the lessons we’ve learned.

What You’ll Do:

• Meet with new and existing clients to provide estimates for tree services
• Prepare clear, detailed quotes (species, equipment, timelines, crew needs, photos, and an explainer video discussing the estimate)
• Build and maintain strong client relationships
• Follow up on estimates and guide clients through the decision process to secure approvals
• Use our CRM to manage client info and streamline communication
• Clearly communicate job details to the crew to ensure smooth execution
• Identify new leads through research, networking, and outreach
• Spot opportunities to upsell or cross-sell additional services
• Stay up-to-date with local by-laws and regulations around tree care

What You Bring:

• Sales experience (arboriculture industry an asset, but not required)
• 3+ years in tree care preferred, though all strong sales professionals will be considered
• Strong communication and people skills
• Comfort with tech (CRMs, spreadsheets, quoting software)
• Time management and organizational skills
• Ability to work outdoors in all conditions
• A clean driver’s abstract
