My current climber only comes in or calls when he feels like it. That was two weeks ago! I need some help, and I can't do everything.
I run a small tree service as part of a somewhat larger lawn maintenance and landscaping company. Tree work is about 1/3rd of what we do. I am looking for a climber that can take instructions from a certified arborist (me!), drive the class B cdl required chipper truck to the jobsite, and then supervise and finish the job without any conflict or training. When not climbing or supervising, you will be expected to grind stumps, operate any of our other equipment, or even help out at non-arborist activities. Sales will definitely be part of your activities.
We do everything from trimming to large removals., We have a complete and pretty well maintained stockpile of arborist equipment, but our chipper truck is a bit old. It has a 12k knuckleboom crane in front of the chip box to help with some problems. Right now I have way more equipment and work to do than I have employees qualified to do the work.
Payscale: $20-$25/hr, depending on experience. If you really think you want to do this for a living but lack all the necessary experience, I will consider a less qualified individual at a lower rate of pay, but you had better be willing to prove that your heart is in it.
If you are otherwise qualified and think you might want the job, but don't have a cdl, send me a note and we can discuss the problem. I have trained lots of cdl drivers; we usually put guys into a class A license so they can haul my A300 bobcat with log grapple to the jobsite.
Right now we have lots of calls coming in, and I am missing work because I can't do it all myself.
