Del Mar Vacations, Orleans, MA, United States
Landscaper / Gardener / Exterior Operations Technicians
Del Mar Vacations is a Veteran-owned, full-service vacation rental company managing 400+ homes across Cape Cod. Our mission is to create lifelong memories through 5-star guest and homeowner experiences, powered by a team that moves fast, solves problems, and cares a lot.
We live by: R.R.R.E.E.E. Readiness, Responsiveness, Resolution, Empathy, Efficiency, Enthusiasm
And we're serious about our values:
Be Reliable. Reliable. Reliable.
Think like a Guest / Homeowner / Team Member
The Obstacle is the Opportunity
Make it Happen
Be Anti-Fragile
If you take pride in clean, sharp work and you notice the stuff everyone else walks past you'll fit in.
The Role: Landscaper / Gardener / Exterior Operations
Type: Full-time (year-round) or Part-time/Seasonal Pay range: $19-$32 per hour (depending on experience) Location: Cape Cod (Headquarters in Orleans, MA)
We're hiring Landscapers/Gardeners/Exterior Ops teammates who can keep our homes looking dialed-in and guest-readyconsistently. This is not "mow and go." This is curb appeal with standards: clean edges, healthy plantings, tidy beds, crisp walkways, and proactive eyes on issues before they become complaints. You'll work across multiple homes, sometimes independently, sometimes alongside our Exterior Ops team. The goal is simple: every property should look like we care. Because we do.
What You'll Own
1) Property Curb Appeal + Landscape Standards
Maintain landscaping across multiple vacation homes: watering, planting, pruning, deadheading, weeding, edging, mulching, seasonal cleanups
Keep beds, walkways, and exterior areas tidy and consistent with Del Mar standards
Mow, trim, and maintain grass areas as needed (where applicable to the role)
2) Project Work + Light Improvements
Support landscape refreshes and small improvement projects (bed rebuilds, shrub replacement, planting installs, cleanups, etc.)
Execute work to scope with strong time management and quality control
3) Proactive Problem-Spotting
Identify issues early: dying plants, irrigation problems, drainage/erosion, pest damage, unsafe walkways, broken exterior items
Communicate clearly with the team so we can fix problems fast and avoid repeat issues
4) Professional Homeowner Presence
Interact with homeowners professionally and effectively when needed to confirm scope and ensure satisfaction
Represent Del Mar with calm, respectful communication (even when someone is emotionally attached to their ornamental grass)
5) Safety + Tools + Field Readiness
Safely operate typical landscaping tools (mowers, trimmers, blowers, hand tools, etc.)
Maintain equipment care, cleanliness, and safe work practices
Follow company policies, job notes, and checklists so work is consistent across the portfolio
You Might Be a Fit If You
Have experience in landscaping, gardening, or property exterior maintenance (multi-site work is a plus)
Know how to do the basics well: edging, weeding, pruning, mulching, planting, watering, seasonal cleanups
Can work independently, manage time, and move efficiently across multiple homes
Communicate clearly and professionally (no mystery updates, no disappearing acts)
Care about details and take pride in clean, finished work
Are physically able to work outdoors in heat, humidity, and the occasional Cape Cod mood swing
Bonus points (not required):
Portuguese speaking
Irrigation installation/maintenance experience
Pesticide/fertilizer license
Horticulture knowledge (shrubs, perennials, plant care)
Preferred experience (flexible):
Gardening: 1+ year
Landscape maintenance: 3+ years

A team that works hard, solves problems fast, and actually respects good work
