Brief Description
About Community Landscape Services (CLS)
Since 1993, Community Landscape Services has been the premier commercial landscape management firm in the D.C. Metro area. Founded by Bill DeWitt to bridge the gap between large national firms and "mow, blow, and go" operations, CLS combines professional, personal, and proactive service with sustainable and regenerative practices.
At CLS, we believe in being more than just a contractor — we are a partner. We take pride in delivering high-quality work, fostering strong client relationships, and caring for each property as if it were our own. Our "Team CLS" philosophy extends to both employees and clients, where value, dependability, integrity, and sustainability are at the core of everything we do.
Position Overview
We're seeking an experienced and client-focused Account Manager to manage a portfolio of commercial (and potentially high-end residential) properties throughout the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia regions. You will be the primary point of contact for clients, ensuring exceptional service delivery, proactive problem solving, and identifying opportunities for property enhancements. You'll work closely with the operations teams, estimating, and leadership to uphold the high standards CLS is known for.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and maintain strong relationships with assigned clients, serving as their go-to contact for all landscape management services.
- Conduct regular site inspections and property walks to monitor service quality, address concerns, and identify enhancement opportunities.
- Oversee the delivery of contracted services including grounds maintenance, irrigation, arboriculture, landscape enhancement, snow management, etc.
- Coordinate with production crews, supervisors, and operations leadership to ensure work is scheduled, executed, and cleaned up to CLS's standards.
- Work with estimating and operations to prepare proposals for enhancements or scope expansions, ensuring accuracy, client value, and profitability.
- Monitor account performance: budgets, billing, profitability, and contract renewals.
- Ensure high levels of client satisfaction – proactively solicit feedback, resolve issues, and communicate clearly and often.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree (Horticulture, Landscape Management, Business, or related field) preferred.
- 3+ years of experience in account management or client-facing roles in commercial landscaping, facilities services, or related fields.
- Strong knowledge of commercial landscape services: grounds maintenance, irrigation, arboriculture, snow management, etc.
- Excellent communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills.
- Strong organizational ability, able to manage multiple accounts and adapt to changing priorities.
- Proactive, solution-oriented mindset; attention to detail.
- Ability to interpret contract documents, scope of work, and proposals.
Summary
Why Work for CLS?
When you join Community Landscape Services, you become part of "Team CLS" — an organization that values people, quality, and sustainable impact. We offer a working environment where your contributions matter, clients become partners, and every project reflects our commitment to excellence.
