What are the responsibilities and job description for the Horticulturist position at Epic?
Please note that this position is based on our campus in Madison, WI, and requires relocation to the area. We recruit nationally and provide financial relocation assistance.
Join Epic's Horticulture team where your expertise will contribute to our one-of-a-kind campus. Our horticulture team takes pride in caring for a diverse campus landscape that promotes creativity, creates a lasting impression for our customers and is also a welcoming environment for the community.
You'll have ownership of garden areas, green roofs, fruit trees, and interior plantings on one of our themed campuses. Responsibilities include planting, watering, weeding, mulching, pruning, deadheading, and snow removal.
We are looking for hard-working individuals who are up to the exciting challenge of taking care of this unique landscape.
Experience our state-of-the-art campus, eat delicious food, and travel the world.
We don’t believe in cubicles. (Well, we believe they exist, but…) Our uniquely themed campus was designed to heighten your ability to get stuff done in your office, a conference room, or by the fireplace in a comfy chair. For lunch, visit King’s Cross or Cassiopeia for a wide array of meal options, or go to one of our smaller, themed bistros, featuring wood-rotisserie, pan-Asian, and Latin-inspired cuisine. All meals are restaurant-quality but cost only a few dollars, and they’re prepared by a team comprised of kitchen talent from restaurants around the country. And, after five years here, you’ll earn a four-week sabbatical anywhere in the world. Staff have kayaked in Patagonia, attended a Beyoncé concert in Ireland, built a library in Tanzania, and run a marathon in Antarctica.
Live affordably in a city known for its rising tech talent.
Epic is located just outside Madison, Wisconsin, the second fastest growing market for tech talent in the United States and home to the state capital and the University of Wisconsin. Madison, a city surrounded by water, has received accolades for being the greenest city in America (NerdWallet), the best city for renters (SmartAsset), the fittest city in America (Fitbit), and the third best metro in the US for young professionals (Forbes Advisor).
More than just important work.
We offer comprehensive benefits to keep you healthy and happy as you grow in your life and career, and your merit-based compensation will reflect the impact your work has on the company and our customers. You'll also be eligible for annual raises and bonuses, as well as stock grants, which give you an even greater stake in the success of Epic and our customers. Epic is an Equal Opportunity employer. We seek diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences in our mission to improve healthcare. Research has shown that job-seekers who are women, LGBTQ , or members of the global majority are less likely to apply for roles they don't seem completely qualified for, so we encourage all who are interested to apply.
