Job Description

Overview: Join the leader in pest control services and take your career to the next level!

Are you seeking a fulfilling hands-on career rather than just another job? If you have experience in construction, home improvement, or related fields, this is your chance to leverage those skills in a stable and rewarding industry.

At Orkin, we prioritize the protection of what matters most—our customers' homes and businesses. For over 120 years, we've set the standard in pest control, and we are on the lookout for motivated individuals who are eager to learn, grow, and make a positive impact.

No prior pest control experience? No problem! Our award-winning training program will provide you with everything you need to excel.

Why You'll Love Working with Us:

  • Make a Difference: Assist customers in safeguarding their homes while enhancing energy efficiency through services like attic remediation, crawlspace encapsulation, and radiant barrier installations.
  • Get Paid While You Learn: Earn a competitive salary as you undergo industry-leading training—no prior experience necessary.
  • Career Advancement: Grow your career with opportunities for leadership, sales, or management positions, as we promote from within.
  • Stable Employment: Enjoy consistent work in a recession-resistant industry because pests never take a break!
  • Comprehensive Support: Receive a company vehicle, fuel card, mobile device, and all necessary technology to help you succeed.

We are guided by a mission grounded in our core values:

  • Safety
  • Professionalism
  • Empathy
  • Integrity
  • Innovation

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct inspections and install pest management systems.
  • Collaborate with a team of technicians to complete projects.
  • Perform attic and crawlspace services, including insulation and encapsulation.
  • Handle light carpentry tasks as required.
  • Communicate effectively with customers.
  • Maintain company equipment and document activities on a handheld device.

What We Offer You:

  • Competitive pay ranging from $20 to $22 per hour, based on experience.
  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and a 401(k) with company match.
  • Paid time off for vacation, holidays, and sick leave.
  • Employee perks such as tuition reimbursement, scholarship programs, and discounts.
  • Paid training and provision of all necessary tools.

Qualifications:

We are looking for candidates who meet the following criteria:

  • Experience in construction, roofing, HVAC, or maintenance (preferred).
  • Strong work ethic with a commitment to delivering excellent customer service.
  • Team-oriented with a positive, professional attitude.
  • Ability to work independently and manage a daily schedule effectively.
  • Comfortable working in various weather conditions, confined spaces, and on roofs.

Minimum Requirements:

  • High School Diploma or equivalent.
  • Experience using a metal brake to shape or bend metal components.
  • Valid driver's license and clean driving record.
  • Willingness to obtain a state pesticide license within 90 days (training covered by the company).
  • Ability to lift 50 lbs., climb ladders, and work safely in attics or crawlspaces.
  • Willingness to wear personal protective equipment, including an OSHA-compliant respirator as required.

Orkin is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer, dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive team. We encourage veterans and individuals with disabilities to apply.
