Snow Shoveler $30 - $45/hr

Battista Landscape is hiring multiple seasonal Snow Shovelers / Sidewalk Crew Members to help keep sidewalks, entrances, and other pedestrian areas safe during winter storms. Based in Little Falls, New Jersey, this hourly role involves travel to assigned snow sites across northern New Jersey during the November to March season. You will work with a team that values dependable service, quality workmanship, and protecting client property, with clear site assignments, field leadership, and preseason training. Storm assignments may include overnight and weekend work, extended periods outdoors, and changing weather conditions. Extensive snow experience is not required—reliable storm availability, good judgment, and a willingness to work hard are essential.

Responsibilities

• Clear snow and ice from sidewalks, entrances, stairs, walkways, and other assigned pedestrian areas.
• Apply de-icing materials as directed and revisit priority areas as weather and site conditions change.
• Complete assigned areas safely and thoroughly, protecting pedestrians, vehicles, curbs, and client property.
• Respond reliably to storm assignments and maintain a steady work pace throughout the assignment.
• Communicate hazards, missed areas, and site issues promptly to the designated leader.
• Work within the contracted scope and company standards; obtain approval from the designated leader before committing resources to extra work.
• Help the crew finish assignments and leave tools and work records ready for the next event.

Qualifications

• Dependable availability for winter storm work, including overnight and weekend assignments.
• Ability to perform physically demanding outdoor work for extended periods in snow, ice, and changing weather.
• Good judgment, attention to safety, and care for people and property.
• Clear communication, teamwork, and a willingness to take responsibility for completing assigned work.
• Extensive snow experience is not required. Include any outdoor, snow removal, construction, landscaping, or other physical-work experience in your application.

Compensation

$30–$45 per hour for seasonal Snow Shoveler / Sidewalk Crew Member assignments. Reliable, high-performing team members may be selected for formal Site Captain or Sidewalk Captain assignments. The captain rate is $45–$50 per hour for the entire designated storm and applies only when formally assigned to that role. Captain assignments are earned through dependable attendance, quality work, judgment, communication, and helping the crew succeed; they are not automatic based on tenure.

Benefits

• Preseason snow safety and sidewalk-quality training.
• Tools, equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), and de-icing materials appropriate to the assignment.
• Clear site assignments, field leadership, and support when site issues or work outside the agreed scope need escalation.
• Opportunities to earn captain assignments and be considered for future snow leadership opportunities as the company grows.
• Seasonl Bonus, based on attendance and hitting key scorecard metrics.

To apply, submit a short application describing your availability for winter storm work, your transportation situation, and any relevant experience. If interested in captain assignments, include experience leading others or taking responsibility for a larger assignment. Battista Landscape will follow up with candidates whose availability and work approach fit the seasonal team.
