Who We Are
Hall Landscape Design, Inc. is a family-owned landscape architecture and construction firm with 40 years of experience serving the Monterey Peninsula.
We specialize in high-end custom design-build landscapes, blending artistic vision with skilled craftsmanship to create beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.

We take pride in our long-standing reputation for quality, innovation, and teamwork—and we're looking for passionate professionals to grow with us.
About the Role
Looking for more than just a job? Want to build stunning landscapes, work with a skilled team, and mentor the next generation of landscape professionals?
This Journeyman-level position offers the chance to work independently on a wide range of custom design-build projects while also providing guidance to apprentices.
Our projects are unique, high-end landscapes—from irrigation systems and drainage work to grading, planting, and low-voltage lighting installation.
You'll be the kind of person who can take direction, run with it, and make sure the work gets done right.
What You'll Be Doing
- Installing irrigation systems, drainage, grading, planting, and lighting
- Ability to take direction but have the skill set to work independently
- Guiding and mentoring apprentices
- Bringing attention to detail to every install
- Using your knowledge of CA native & Mediterranean plants to create thriving landscapes
- Occasionally hopping on a tractor or handling irrigation repairs (experience with these is a plus)
- Ability to drive a truck and trailer
- Using technology to stay organized and communicate effectively
Who We're Looking For
- 2 years of construction or landscaping experience required
- Technical skills and experience with plumbing and irrigation systems, drainage, and basic carpentry
- Irrigation scheduling and controller programming experience is a plus
- Work ethic, curiosity, and willingness to learn are just as important as skill
- Bilingual (English/Spanish) preferred – communication is key in our team environment
- Physically fit – lots of standing, walking, and lifting (up to 50 lbs)
- CA driver's license with a clean record
- Comfortable using technology – must be able to communicate via Slack and text for scheduling and job updates
- Good communication skills – The next level up requires strong leadership & coordination
Paid Skills Demonstration Day (Before Hiring)
We want to ensure you're the right fit for our team, so qualified candidates will be invited to participate in a one-day paid skills demonstration.
During this trial day, you'll work alongside our team to showcase your irrigation installation, planting, and equipment operation skills in a real job setting.
This allows both you and us to confirm that it's a great match before making a final hiring decision.
