Coastal Wildlife & Pest Services, one of the fastest-growing pest and wildlife control companies in the Jacksonville area, is looking for a hardworking, reliable and customer-focused technician to join our team. Never done this type of work before? That’s OK! If you thrive on variety, enjoy solving problems and like working independently, we're confident you’ll love this field - and we’ll teach you everything you need to know to be successful.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for both pest control and wildlife services, which makes every day different and exciting. We kick off each morning with a team huddle to get you fired up and ready to seize the day. During this meeting, we’ll review schedules, address any issues from the previous day and ensure everyone has the equipment they need. From there, you’ll be out in the field inspecting properties for pest and wildlife activity, identifying entry points, setting and removing traps and applying pest control treatments using backpack sprayers and other application methods. You’ll also perform exclusion work, sealing vulnerable areas like roof returns, crawl spaces and attics using hand and power tools.

Additionally, because customer service is a major part of the job, you’ll be expected to communicate with homeowners and business owners, explain the services being performed and offer recommendations for ongoing pest and wildlife prevention. While most of your work will be done independently, you’ll stay connected with the office to update job statuses, report any issues and adjust schedules as needed. This role also requires participating in a rotating on-call schedule for animal pickups and emergency services, typically one weekend per month. Finally, while this isn't a sales position, you'll have the opportunity to cross-sell and upsell services and earn a generous commission on any new business you bring in. Pretty cool, right?

So why choose to work with us instead of another pest control company? We’re glad you asked! We offer competitive compensation, the use of a company vehicle, a supportive culture and opportunities to advance as our company expands. If you’re looking to be part of a team where you can grow personally and professionally while making a difference in the lives of your coworkers and our customers, we’d love to talk with you about joining the Coastal family.
