Property Maintenance Couple/Excavation Business Assistant - Shooting Creek, NC

We are offering an opportunity to work/live in one of the most beautiful areas of the country, surrounded by thousands of acres of wilderness, with a live trout stream, hiking trails, waterfalls and other incredible outdoor recreation opportunities, all right outside of your front door.  We have an immediate need for a strong, energetic, proficient, stable couple, with a varied skill set, to assist us with property maintenance and care, in Western NC/Northeast GA, in exchange for housing, with all utilities paid.  This position also requires one person in the couple to assist with our grading/hardscape/contractor business; this part of the job is paid a competitive hourly rate.  The other person will be required to 'give' several hours per week of cleaning/organization towards 'rent', but can also have outside work (online work is most appropriate, as we are very remote).  Rent exchange hours and paid hours to be discussed more thoroughly during the interview process.

Skills desired include operation of (or assisting with site prep around) heavy equipment, chainsaws, rigging, tree felling, mechanical skills.  Basic carpentry, basic electrical and plumbing, all a plus, but not necessary - more important than anything is a can-do attitude, willingness to learn, and do whatever is necessary to assist on property, from running errands and trash runs, to assisting in the repair of structures, tree removal, lawn care, gutter cleaning, and other tasks.  

Must like animals (dogs/cats), as we have them on property and may need occasional assistance with pet care, and MUST be comfortable with remote living - we are 40 minutes, one way, to the closest town!  Please - NO PETS (one of our dogs is not particularly friendly with other dogs), no kids, and NO DRAMA!  

Please send your CV/resume; references will also be required.

We look forward to seeing what you, as a couple, have to offer!
