the situation
good landscapers are already out on site
they're out on site, not on job boards
A good landscape works manager already has sites to run. They don't read job ads. A headhunter in the sector knows who they work for and calls them directly.
spring arrives for everyone at once
Planting, landscape construction, maintenance: activity picks up at the same time for every landscaping company. An empty role in March means jobs turned down in May.
design, pricing, team leading: three jobs
A landscape designer, a business manager and a team leader have neither the same background nor the same network. At Muzzo, each role goes to the headhunter who makes the most placements in that field.
the roles
the landscaping profiles our headhunters will find for you
From the design office to the site, each role goes to a headhunter who knows that job.
landscape works manager
They organise landscape construction and maintenance jobs: schedule, teams, equipment, subcontractors. It is often the hardest role to fill.
grounds maintenance team leader
They lead a team on the ground and maintain the quality of the work. A good team leader saves hours every week.
landscaping business manager
They answer public and private tenders, price the work and follow the client through to handover.
landscape designer
They design landscaping projects, from private gardens to public spaces. They need to design well and stay realistic on site.
irrigation technician and grounds machinery mechanic
They install irrigation systems and maintain mowers, chippers and machinery. Without them, the teams grind to a halt.
grounds maintenance sales rep
They sell maintenance contracts to residential buildings, companies and local authorities. Contracts that keep the business running all year.
branch manager and works director
They run a branch or several sites: teams, clients, margin. We look for someone who has done it before in landscaping.
the method
one headhunter per role, not one agency for everything
We have tracked every headhunter since November 2020, on three criteria: how many hires they make, the quality of their profiles, their speed.
you describe the role
You fill in the form, then we talk it through: the role, the region, the season, the salary. You set the fee, between 5 and 30%.
we choose the headhunters
From more than 2,500 selected headhunters, we keep those who make the most placements in your field and your region.
you meet the right profiles
The headhunters approach and check every profile. You receive fewer CVs, but ones that match.
you only pay if you hire
Nothing to pay upfront. No fixed fees, no deposit.
hiring with a landscaping recruitment agency
why use a landscaping recruitment agency
Landscaping companies struggle to hire, especially in the field: team leaders, works managers, machinery mechanics. The good ones already have a job and a crew relying on them. They don't answer job ads.
A landscaping recruitment agency goes and finds them directly, presents your company, your projects and your prospects, then introduces only people who have done the job before. You save time when your teams are at their busiest.
design and build, maintenance, public contracts: three activities, three profiles
Building gardens and public spaces takes works managers who can read a plan, stick to a schedule and run machinery. Maintenance takes reliable team leaders who can organise rounds and keep clients for years.
Public contracts take business managers who know how to answer a tender and run a project for a local authority. At Muzzo, each of these roles goes to the headhunter who makes the most placements for that exact job.
the trade rules our headhunters check
In France, landscaping companies have their own national collective agreement, separate from construction. Pay scales and job grades don't compare directly: our headhunters know these grids and set the salary with you.
In the field, several certifications matter: CACES for machinery, Certiphyto for crop protection products. Since the Labbé law, local authorities no longer use pesticides in most public spaces, so teams need to be trained in ecological management.
landscape architect, works manager, business manager
The title of landscape architect (paysagiste concepteur) has been regulated by law since 2016. For a design office or practice, our headhunters check the degree and the portfolio of completed projects.
For a landscape works manager or business manager, they look at the projects delivered, the budgets handled and the clients managed. For a branch manager, they check that the person has already managed a team and a P&L.
how our headhunters find landscaping profiles
Your role goes to the headhunters who have already recruited for that job, chosen from more than 2,500 selected headhunters. We have tracked them since November 2020 on three criteria: how many hires they make, the quality of their profiles, their speed.
They know the landscaping companies in your region, the nurseries, the local authorities and the design offices. They approach people in post, check their references and introduce few profiles, but the right ones.
cost, timing and guarantee for a landscaping hire
You set the fee for each role, between 5 and 30%, paid only when you hire. Launching is free, with no exclusivity. A Muzzo hire takes 26 days on average: launch the mission before spring so your new hire starts with the season.
If your new hire leaves within 3 months, we restart the search at no cost. If we don't find a replacement within 4 months, we refund 50% of the fees. On average, 94% of new hires are still in the role after 3 months.
your questions about hiring in landscaping
On average, a Muzzo hire takes 26 days, across all roles, over the last 12 months. In landscaping, it's best to launch the mission before spring, so your new hire starts at the beginning of the season.
Good team leaders already have a job and don't read job ads. A headhunter goes and finds them directly, checks their projects and certifications (CACES, Certiphyto), then introduces the ones who fit.
Yes. We recruit business managers and works managers who know public tenders and ecological management, as well as those who work for private clients, residential buildings and companies.
A traditional agency hands your role to its own recruiters. Muzzo hands it to the headhunters with the best results for that job, chosen from more than 2,500 selected headhunters. A landscape architect and a team leader don't go through the same person.
Landscaping companies have their own national collective agreement, separate from construction. Our headhunters know its job grades and help you position the salary from the first call.
