With a reputation built over more than a century and a team-first culture, you'll feel supported from day one, with the freedom and tools to succeed.

Responsibilities:

What you'll do:

  • Handle company vehicles, tools, and materials responsibly while adhering to best practices.
  • Use handheld devices to accurately log findings, complete service reports, and track customer interactions efficiently.

What's in it for you?

  • Average first year earnings between $50,000 and $60,000 plus commission
  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision & life insurance
  • 401(k) plan with company match, employee stock purchase plan.
