- Minimum 2 years of climbing, rigging, pruning, and removal experience
- Strong understanding of safe climbing practices
- Valid driver's license
- Ability to perform physically demanding work at heights
We invest in our climbers through paid training, classroom instruction, industry seminars, and support for certification testing and related expenses. As you grow your skills, you'll have opportunities to take on more advanced work and progress into Crew Leader or other senior field roles. We're committed to a safety-first, professional environment where people are supported as they grow.
