We are seeking an experienced, highly independent Lead Water Mitigation & Restoration Technician to handle emergency field dispatches on a part-time, on-call basis. This position is ideal for an established industry professional looking for excellent secondary income, flexibility, or an on-call schedule.

You must be comfortable working independently and executing the necessary documentation from the field.


Key Responsibilities Emergency Response: Respond promptly to emergency water mitigation dispatches within our target service windows. Site Assessment & Diagnostics: Utilize smart thermal cameras, pin/pinless moisture meters, and thermo-hygrometers to map water migration and establish dry standards. Physical Mitigation: Execute professional water extraction (including heavy sub-surface carpet/pad extraction), place containment barriers, and perform structural drying equipment setups (LGR dehumidifiers and air movers) per IICRC standards. Digital Documentation: Flawlessly execute our field data collection protocol using the Encircle mobile app. This includes capturing baseline/source photos, inputting daily psychrometric/moisture logs, and digital equipment mapping. Client & Legal Protocol: Maintain excellent communication with homeowners during a crisis. Ensure all digital paperwork—including Work Authorizations and Direction of Payment forms—are thoroughly explained and signed before commencing work.


Qualifications & Requirements Certification: Active IICRC WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician) certification is highly preferred, but significant verifiable field experience will be considered. Availability: Must be willing to participate in a flexible, rotating 24/7 emergency on-call schedule (including nights and weekends). Proficient with technology: Must be highly proficient using smartphone apps (Encircle, time-tracking software) to document work in real-time. Physical Demands: Ability to lift 50+ lbs routinely, maneuver heavy commercial equipment (like XL LGR dehumidifiers), and perform physical labor (extraction, moving furniture, setup) independently. Background: Must possess a valid driver's license with a clean driving record and pass a standard background check. What We Offer Premium hourly pay reflective of your industry experience and certifications. Guaranteed on-call dispatch bonuses per emergency run. Independence and autonomy—you manage the field project, we handle the back-office administrative and insurance billing logistics.
