To thrive as a Wilbert Vault technician, you need knowledge of burial vault installation, safe equipment operation, and a solid understanding of cemetery protocols, often supported by a high school diploma or equivalent and relevant on-the-job training. Familiarity with tools like backhoes, cranes, and Wilbert's proprietary vault handling systems is essential, and some positions may require OSHA safety certification. Strong teamwork, attention to detail, and communication skills help technicians coordinate with funeral directors, cemetery staff, and grieving families. These abilities ensure safe, precise vault installation and respectful, efficient service delivery at cemetery sites.
