  • People comfortable with heights and changing weather
  • People who show up on time and finish what they start
  • People who work well on a 2person team with minimal supervision

What we offer:
  • Consistent biweekly pay throughout the season
  • Paid training before season starts
  • Crewbased work - you'll have a partner, not be working alone
  • Housing assistance may be available for outofarea candidates
  • A seasonal gig that bridges the gap between your main season and spring
