Growth Path to Sales or Management

Acorn Wildlife is growing and we’re looking for a dependable, hands-on Wildlife Technician to join our team.

This is a field-based production role. Our sales team performs inspections and creates the solutions — your responsibility is to execute work orders safely, efficiently, and professionally.

If you enjoy physical work, working outdoors, using tools, and solving real problems for homeowners, this is a long-term career opportunity — not just a job.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Execute wildlife removal work orders (including trapping and control methods as directed)
• Install exclusion materials such as vent covers, chimney caps, screens, and structural barriers
• Seal entry points to prevent re-entry
• Perform light carpentry and repair work
• Work on roofs, extension ladders, in attics, crawlspaces, and other confined areas
• Follow safety protocols at all times
• Document completed work with photos and notes
• Communicate professionally with homeowners upon job completion

You will not be responsible for performing inspections or selling services — your focus is high-quality production work.

Compensation

• $18–$24 per hour (based on experience)
• Performance-based commission and production bonuses
• Overtime opportunities during peak season
• $45,000–$60,000 first-year earning potential
• Paid training and licensing
• Health, Dental, Vision, Life

Compensation combines hourly pay with performance incentives. Technicians who work efficiently and take pride in production have strong earning potential.

What We’re Looking For

• Dependable and punctual
• Strong work ethic
• Comfortable working at heights and in tight spaces
• Comfortable handling wildlife (including lethal trapping when required)
• Mechanically inclined and confident using tools
• Professional and respectful with customers
• Safety-minded with attention to detail

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license
• Clean driving record preferred
• Frequent lifting of 50+ lbs
• Comfortable working outdoors year-round
• Able to safely operate extension ladders and work on roofs
• Committed to maintaining a safe, accident-free work environment

What We Offer

• Company vehicle (for job use)
• Company phone/tablet
• Uniforms provided
• Paid training & licensing
• Stable full-time schedule (Monday–Friday)
• Occasional Saturdays during busy season
• Clear advancement path to:
• • Senior Technician
  • Sales Inspector
  • Operations / Management roles
