Meet the Team

The People Behind the Work

Every property we work on has people behind it — planning the work, communicating with clients, operating the equipment, solving problems and making sure the details get handled.

Our clients often get to know the people looking after their property, and we think it’s only fair that you get to know a few of them here too.

Meet some of the people behind Drake’s Landscaping — and stay tuned as we continue to introduce more of the team.

And when winter hits? It’s all hands on deck. Snow & Ice Management brings people from across Drake’s together, with everyone pitching in where they’re needed when the weather turns.

The Breakfast Club

Breakfast hits a little different when you’ve been pushing snow since 1 a.m.

Snow & Ice Management takes long nights, early mornings and a team willing to show up when most people would rather stay home. Meet a few of the familiar faces who somehow keep signing up for another winter with us.

Grow With Drake’s Landscaping

Good People. Good Work. A Good Place to Grow.

The people who represent Drake’s matter just as much as the work we leave behind.
We’re looking for people who take pride in doing a job properly, communicate well, are willing to learn, and understand that how you show up on someone’s property matters.
You don’t need to know everything on day one. We care about experience, but we care just as much about attitude, reliability, and a willingness to keep getting better.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

Why Work With Drake’s?

Keep Growing

We believe there’s always something to learn. Whether it’s developing technical skills, learning new equipment, earning certifications or taking on more responsibility, we want our team members to continue developing as the company does.

Work That Matters

There’s satisfaction in looking back at a property and knowing you helped make it better. We expect quality work and give our team the tools, equipment and support they need to deliver it.

Build a Career, Not Just Hours

For someone who wants more, there should be somewhere to go. As people develop their skills and demonstrate they’re ready for greater responsibility, we want to create opportunities for them to take that next step.

Be Part of the Team

We take the work seriously, but that doesn’t mean every day has to feel serious. Respect, teamwork, accountability and a sense of humour all have a place here.

Quality Tools & Equipment

We invest in the gear our team needs to do the job safely, efficiently, and well.

Know What’s Expected

Good work is easier when expectations are clear. We continue to improve the systems, planning and communication behind our crews so our team knows what they’re responsible for and what success looks like.

Represent Something We’ve Built Together

Drake’s has been serving the Kingston area since 2008. Our reputation belongs to everyone wearing our name, and we want people on our team who take pride in what that represents.
