Rentokil North America, Inc. Pest Technician in Everett, Washington
Additional Job Description Creepy crawlies and contented customers. Intrigued? You might be just who we're looking for. Busting bugs has its benefits. Company-provided truck, gas, and phone. Benefits including a 401(k) with a company match. But it's more than that. It's serving with a smile. It's having your teammates' backs. It's going above and beyond and making a difference. We step in and step up when people have problems they can't fix, and they need the pros. We crush their pest problems and lift their spirits. Back to you. Are you a hard worker? Can you follow direction, adapt to change, and solve problems? Are you organized, friendly, and motivated to succeed? That's a great place to start. As a Pest Control Technician, here's what you can expect You won't be tied to a desk. You'll be out and about --- mobile, independent, and growing your career with a clear view of next steps. You'll be the face of Terminix to your local community (with the backing of a national brand), and your clients will count on you to protect their businesses, their homes, and their families. When you first join Terminix Nation, you'll spend a few months in training. Once you've got that and some state required licenses and certificates under your belt, you'll take the lead with your own customers. You'll get rewarded with competitive pay and robust benefits to cover you and your family. As a teammate, you will be eligible for a 401(k) with company match, company-paid life insurance, tuition reimbursement, and a generous student loan repayment program. You put in the work, and you'll reap the rewards. You'll be part of a community --- bonus points if you're already a leader in yours. Our bonds are strong at Terminix Nation and the relationships we develop in the communities we serve are unparalleled. Our teammates give back through volunteering, donations, scholarships, and more. You'll be onboarded and trained by the best of 'em. You'll get paid to get licensed, something you'll have for a lifetime. You'll know how to bust bugs at home, too. What your days will look like Roll up your sleeves and get ready to learn how we take care of customers. You'll become an expert in applying our company products so they're safe and effective. Are you a good driver? As a technician, your office is the cab of your Terminix truck. You'll use it on calls and take it home, too. Same goes for your Terminix phone. We trust our technicians. You'll be responsible for building relationships with customers, scheduling and confirming their appointments, helping with sales to current customers, and expanding our product to new customers. Does technology scare you? That's okay. We provide training and support to ensure you're comfortable using state-of-the-art tools. You'll also need to have strong communication skills so that you can email, text, call, talk, and write effectively. Oh, and sometimes there's paperwork. There's an opportunity to grow into a role you're passionate about and fits your skillset --- whether that's management, a move to sales, or another opportunity at Terminix.
