American Lawn & Sprinkler hires Ian Mitchell as vice president of landscape

New Jersey-based American Lawn & Sprinkler is adding Ian Mitchell as vice president of landscape.

Mitchell previously played a role in the company’s expansion before temporarily stepping away to focus on personal growth.

“As a company, American Lawn & Sprinkler has always been devoted to being in-tune with homeowner needs and surpassing them,” Mitchell says. “This message will be at the forefront of my work, where I will be working closely with our community and internal team to bring us to new heights in the industry.”

Boasting more than 40 years of experience in the landscaping sector, Mitchell found his passion early in life after working side-by-side with his father. Graduating with a degree in landscape architecture, he would soon find himself part of the Brickman Group, one of the largest landscape businesses across the nation. After operating as branch manager for 12 years, Mitchell would leave to help American Lawn & Sprinkler’s growth in 2017.

“Some of my fondest memories in this line of work are with American Lawn & Sprinkler, especially those times where we took on complex opportunities that catapulted the company and placed us as an industry leader,” Mitchell adds. “My goal now is to assist in managing our operations and increasing profitability- I look forward to connecting with team members new and old.”

“We are excited to welcome Ian back to the team after much too long,” says Founder Steve Rogers. “He is key in establishing high performance teams, all while building trust and loyalty internally and with customers. As we expand across New Jersey, his skills will absolutely be put to perfect use, and I’m excited to see what relationships he helps forge."
