Merchandising Assistant

A BIT ABOUT YOU

You’re consistent through and through. You believe in checking your work not once but twice to get things done the right way. Being diligent in your work and focused on the task at hand is your strong suit, but you’re willing to help others without hesitation. Your focus and attention to detail allow you to quickly learn and achieve goals consistently and efficiently. And you’re patient and thoughtful by nature – taking pride in producing accurate and complete results.

A BIT ABOUT US

We like plants, people, and beautiful spaces. John Mulhall came to Omaha in 1953 to landscape, and now, three generations later, we’re as committed as we’ve ever been to making Omaha a more beautiful place to live. Today we’re a team of a few hundred people, but our focus remains the same: working together to engage our community and share our passion for the beauty of the natural world. And we have fun doing it.
