A worker employed at a branch office or a person who climbs and prunes branches of trees.
From branch + man, a straightforward English compound referring to someone associated with branches.
Professional branchmen have an almost acrobatic skill set—they use ropes and chainsaws while balanced in trees, performing a dangerous job that most people never see but that keeps our urban trees healthy.
Traditionally gendered masculine, defaulting to 'man' for workers in organizational branch offices or railway branch operations, reflecting occupational segregation patterns of 19th-20th centuries.
Use 'branch manager,' 'branch staff,' or 'branch coordinator' to refer to the role rather than the person's gender.
