About the Role We’re not looking for just another technician — we’re building a team of skilled, professional lawn and pest control experts who take pride in their work.

This is year-round, full-time work with structured training and a clear path for growth. You’ll start with hands-on training alongside a certified pest operator who sets clear expectations around quality, safety, and customer experience. As your skills grow, so do your responsibilities and pay. We offer a proven career path that can take you from Technician to Trainer, Field Manager, and beyond — including opportunities to help lead or manage a branch.
