Drain Cleaning Expert

About the role

Today is awesome! You showed up for work, loaded up the truck, and the Dispatcher hands you a work order. You’ve got the education to understand what’s wrong… now it’s time to roll up your sleeves and put it in action.

Responsibilities

• Work with the team: You stay in contact with your supervisor and your team to make sure the work orders are completed efficiently – everyone pitches in because it’s ultimately about serving the customer.
• Develop your expertise: You identify stoppages and provide solutions to solve the problems uncovered. Over time, you gain a growing expertise at diagnosing problems and understanding how to repair or replace them.
• Respond to emergencies with safety as your top priority.
• Become a trusted professional: You keep your tools neat, clean, and well-maintained so they’re handy and ready for use and safe. You’ll learn to prepare written materials (e.g. scope of work, work orders, bids, equipment inventory, etc.) because you know that this keeps everyone informed – from the customer to the team back at the office.
• You look forward to the day when you’re a trusted industry expert with your own apprentices to train.

Requirements

• You love to learn: You have a high school diploma or equivalent. You don’t need experience to apply here but experience is preferred. Most importantly, you have a drive to learn more because you know that it serves everyone – from the customer to the team to yourself.
• You’re a tech-savvy people-person: You love the puzzle and adventure of understanding and completing the technical challenges you’re posed with every day. At the same time, you’re comfortable talking to a homeowner and professionally educating them on what their options are. Equipment handling, technical information, simple math and geometry? No problem.
• You’re ready to work: You have a driver’s license, a ready-to-work attitude, and no problem handling the physical demands of the job – such as lifting heavy equipment or balancing on a ladder. You’re capable of working in enclosed spaces or doing a significant amount of crawling and standing. (Hey, if this is a surprise to you then you probably shouldn’t be a drain cleaner).
• You’re a professional: You are clean, neat, and well-groomed in appearance and you understand that safety is paramount. You won’t work anywhere that is unsafe but you know safety is a two-way street, so you won’t do anything unsafe either.
