Arborist Assistant careers
An Arborist Assistant supports qualified arborists in the care and maintenance of trees, particularly in urban and suburban environments. Their role typically involves assisting with tree pruning, removal, planting, and general tree care under the supervision of a lead arborist.
They help operate and maintain equipment such as chainsaws, chippers, and elevated work platforms, and are often responsible for cleaning up work sites and safely disposing of green waste.
Arborist Assistants also play a role in ensuring safety protocols are followed, particularly when working near power lines or in public spaces.
