Job Description

Build Million-Dollar Backyards (Not Mow Lawns)

Experienced Landscape Construction Laborer
High-End Design-Build Firm | Bellevue, WA
$25–$30/hr + Up to $7–$8/hr Performance Bonuses


Translation: Top performers can earn $37–$38/hr | Full Benefits

Here's the Deal:

Alderwood Landscaping isn't your typical landscape company. We don't touch mowers. We build custom outdoor living spaces that belong in magazines—think cascading waterfalls, stone fire pits, chef-grade outdoor kitchens, and patios that cost more than most cars.

Our clients are high-end homeowners across the Pacific Northwest who want the best. That's where you come in.

• Operating excavators and skid steers (not just watching someone else do it).
• Installing premium hardscapes, water features, retaining walls, and rockeries.
• Working directly under a Site Manager— leading and motivating your crew.
• Reading plans, setting grades, and keeping sites tight and professional.
• Building projects you'll actually want to show your friends.

What We Need From You:

• 3+ years landscape construction experience (you know the difference between a compactor and a jackhammer).
• Heavy equipment skills— excavators, skid steers, etc.
• Valid driver's license + reliable transportation.
• The grit to work outdoors year-round (yes, even in Seattle winters).
• Leadership potential and a no-drama attitude.
• Bilingual? Huge plus.

What's In It For You:

• $25–$30+/hr base (experience pays).
• Performance incentives up to $7–$8/hr extra.
• Full benefits after 90 days: Health, Dental, Vision.
• 401(k) + Free Life Insurance.
• Paid Time Off
• Real career growth —prove yourself, become a Foreman.
• Work on projects that actually matter (not just another hedge trim).
