Work environment

Hotel or boutique property in Guadalajara. Outdoor grounds maintenance in Mexico's second city, with exposure to both colonial and modern hotel property types.

About the role

Guadalajara hotel properties sit in one of the most comfortable urban climates in Mexico — neither too hot nor too cold, with a reliable rainy season that drives lush growth without the humidity extremes of the coast. The gardener who learns both the colonial courtyard tradition and the commercial business hotel style has a versatile skillset that works across the full Guadalajara hotel market.
