Careers
Stump Grinding Clay is interested in connecting with dependable people who enjoy outdoor work, take pride in doing a job properly, and appreciate serving local property owners. As our Clay County service business grows, we want to build a team that values safety, communication, and practical problem-solving. The following are potential roles within our business, subject to actual hiring needs.
What We Look For
- Care about the work. We want people who take pride in doing stump grinding properly, not just quickly.
- Straight talk with customers. You will be in someone's home or business explaining what you found. Plain language beats jargon.
- Reliability. Showing up when you said you would matters more here than any single line on a resume.
- Respect for the property. Protecting the space, cleaning up, and leaving it better than you found it.
- Safety, every time. Following safe practice is part of the job, not an extra.
Experience in stump grinding or a related trade helps. If you have the attitude and not yet the trade experience, say so, because we do train.
