Full Time Wildlife Removal Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Wildlife Removal & Exclusion Technician

NY NJ Wildlife Removal, Inc. is an established wildlife-control company seeking a dependable, mechanically inclined, hands-on person to join our field team in Staten Island.

This is not a temporary job or general labor position. We are looking for someone who wants to learn a skilled trade, develop into a highly capable wildlife-control professional, and build a long-term career with an established company.

Starting training compensation: $150 per workday.

New technicians begin by working alongside an experienced wildlife professional and receive hands-on training in the field. As your skills, knowledge, and ability to work independently develop, there is an opportunity to advance into an independent route technician position with greater responsibility, independence, and earning potential.

What You'll Do

This is a hands-on field position involving residential and commercial properties throughout New York City and New Jersey.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Inspecting homes and buildings for wildlife activity and potential entry points
• Wildlife trapping and removal
• Wildlife exclusion and prevention
• Sealing and repairing animal entry points
• Working from ladders and on residential roofs
• Working in attics, crawl spaces, and other confined areas
• Using hand and power tools
• Performing basic construction, carpentry, and repair work
• Communicating professionally with homeowners and property managers
• Working outdoors throughout the year in varying weather conditions
• Learning to identify wildlife behavior, damage, entry points, and appropriate solutions

Who We're Looking For

The right person will be:

• Dependable and consistently on time
• Mechanically inclined and comfortable working with tools
• Comfortable working from ladders, on roofs, in attics, and in crawl spaces
• Comfortable working around wildlife
• Able to work independently and solve problems in the field
• Professional and respectful when working inside customers' homes and businesses
• Willing to learn and accept instruction from experienced technicians
• Physically capable of performing the essential duties of the job
• Comfortable working outdoors throughout the year
• Interested in building a long-term career, rather than looking for temporary work

Experience We Value

Previous wildlife-control experience is a major plus, but it is not required for the right candidate.

We highly value hands-on experience in:

• Wildlife removal or nuisance wildlife control
• Pest control
• Wildlife or pest exclusion
• Roofing
• Carpentry
• Construction
• Handyman or residential repair work
• Chimney or exterior home-service work
• Property maintenance
• Mechanical work
• Other skilled field-service trades

If you have a strong work ethic, good mechanical ability, experience with tools, and a willingness to learn, we are willing to train you in professional wildlife removal.

Requirements

• Valid driver's license
• Reliable transportation to and from our Staten Island starting location
• Ability to safely perform the physical requirements of the position, with or without reasonable accommodation
• Ability to safely use ladders, hand tools, and power tools
• Ability to work outdoors throughout the year
• Ability to communicate professionally with customers
• Dependable attendance and reliable transportation to work
• Availability for a full-time field schedule, typically Tuesday through Saturday

Training & Career Growth

New technicians initially work alongside an experienced wildlife professional and receive hands-on field training using a company vehicle.

You will learn the practical skills involved in professional wildlife control, including inspection, trapping, exclusion, animal-entry repair, basic structural repair, and customer service.

As your skills and experience develop, there is an opportunity to advance into an independent route technician position with increased responsibility, independence, and earning potential.

We are looking for someone who wants to learn the business, become highly skilled in the trade, take pride in their work, and build a future with the company.

This opportunity is a good fit for someone who is dependable, good with their hands, comfortable working outdoors, and looking for a skilled trade where they can continue to learn and grow.
